Oh my. That's not how it works. Thats not how any of it works.

There are less people getting health services than there would be if it weren't a constraint field. Also, the total amount of money paid to doctors would be much higher if more doctors would join: it just would be a lower average.

The doctor community makes less money by contraining supply the same way a bagel shop makes less money if it doesnt satisfy its demand. This is absolutely basic microeconomics.
