Abstract 

The House of Medicine has been disadvantaged by not being at the table, by believing that society will take care of us, and by believing that economics are not critically important to the practice of medicine. All of these assumptions are incorrect. We must be at the table the next time around and we must be prepared for the crisis of access that will bring about societies’ dealings with these important issues.
