    They save lives, while I write software that could disappear tomorrow and no chaos would ensue. But I do earn my employers more money than the doctor does.

    The only world in which this is right is a world where you only care about yourself and being rich.

    Just regular supply and demand thing. Too many doctors, and not enough software engineers.

      There’s way too many software engineers and a constant shortage of doctors, at least in Canada.
