Medical Field During Economy

Just received news that one of my sisters is moving into less expensive housing because her Chiropractor husband's practice that he works out of isn't doing as well as it was doing due to the economy.  He needs to find a different area to look for Chiropractor Jobs.  The area they're in now has too many rural areas surrounding it.  You'd think the medical field would be untouchable from the economy. After all, people are always going to hurt themselves or get sick.

I'm still waiting for this economy to pick up.  Seems like I've been waiting years.  Oh wait, I have been.
