Makes sense, Texas was a Mexican state until it seceded because white illegal immigrants from America wanted slavery, which the Mexican government had outlawed. These American-Mexican immigrants then called on the United States to invade to protect “American interests” aka slavery which the Americans obliged to do. And that’s why we remember the Alamo.

I went to college with a lot of people from South American and was really taken aback with how… easy it seemed to become a doctor.

​

Like don’t get me wrong I was at a fairly high level university and all it’s not like these students were dumb - but the impression I got was that you can largely just decide to become a doctor out of high school and then more or less qualify to enter med school immediately.

Not to say doctors from these regions are worse, but it’s odd to meet like a 25 year old who casually finished med school last year

Why does the government control this? Do lawyers or nurses in training have to be accounted for? No. So why docs. It makes no sense. So hospitals pay for Physician Assistants instead because docs are too expensive because they are limited by the government, thus perpetuating the cycle. The government shouldn't be where that gets decided.

Happy to see this show is still alive in some minds. Just started watching it a few weeks ago. Finished S2. What a totally brilliant TV show this is, or rather was.

Right up my alley at what I love in TV shows. Mystery, weirdness, not explaining everything, relatable characters, not holding back on anything, putting your own mind at work, and a proper adult TV show.

I love it, and I don't know how I could have missed it all those years. Watch it if you have not already.
