There are lots of different types of nurses.

A specific example is a friend of mine is a nurse who specializes in
cardiac (ex:// angioplasty) operations. He'll do a several month
contract at Hartford Hospital, do one or two at Yale, go back to
Hartford... He takes summers off to fly his r/c planes. He's not
in a union, and totally self-employed.

Private duty, in-home care nurses, are quite often sub-contractors
to
shift some of the extreme liability away from the agencies.


Which accounts for at most a quarter of the sales of SUVs.

I only attempt to point out one factor. Style is probably the
biggest
driver in vehicle sales.

I don't think that style was ever the reason that people bought
station wagons. It might be the reason they bought one in preference
to another but not the reason that they bought one in preference to a
sedan.
