Bioethics Discussion Blog: Why People "Hate Doctors"

Maurice Bernstein of Bioethics Discussion Blog has written an interesting post about search engine queries and hate:

"A visitor came today to my blog from Google with the search words “I hate doctors”. So I went back to Google today and entered the words "I hate..." and finished the expression with "doctors" and found there were 18,300 sites using those words. Then I replaced "doctors" with "nurses" and then a whole bunch of other jobs and below is the results I obtained:

I HATE...
Doctors 18,300
Nurses 659
Lawyers 10,100
Politicians 994
......................."

Read the 84 comments (and counting) on Dr. Bernstein's previous post to see why people may feel that way.
