More numbers equals more jobs??

No offense, anonymous, but this is specious reasoning.

How do you figure that by increasing the number of podiatrists in the U.S. this will increase the number of jobs? That's like saying that if I increase the number of checks in my checkbook, I'll have more money.

DO's did fill a need. This new school is not training new DPM's to fill any specific need. What info is there that there is a need for new podiatrists? There might be a need on the Indian reservations or in the inner cities, but how many pods do you imagine will want to relocate to these areas for a meager stipend?
