Not that much higher.

One of these things requires 20 minutes and €5.

The other requires more than half a decade of intense education, internships, tests and further verifications. (Not to mention thousands of Euros in education costs, if not state sponsored)

I cannot think of a larger difference in terms of barrier to entry.

Half a decade?

In France Medical Doctors require 6 years of externship, 4 years of internship + various amount of years depending on the specialization up to 5 (?) for example for neurology.

It's also the population that lead to the most suicides due to how intense the expectations are and failure will lead you to tenures you don't want (There is a spot for everyone but not where you want and on the speciality you want, even though we are lacking doctors ...)

I wanted to say decade but I know someone would say "you don't need to do 10 years, you are only in school 6 in my country".

So, I said 'more than half-a-decade' because that is essentially the absolute minimum that nobody can be pedantic about.

You don't seem to understand, that under capitalism, mostly any work or study has to be backed up with money. Doctors don't become doctors a different way a reporter becomes one. What they teach you in universities it's not whay you end up doing. A reporter doesn't mean to do bad when they start studying, neither does a doctor. The results are totally different.
