*Facepalm* Spoken like a true medical student. Where to begin...
I don't 'hate' anyone. I, like many other posters on this forum, do have some rather large concerns regarding midlevels and their scope of practice. I work superbly well with the PAs that I am presently around. Hell, I'm even running a charity race with a PA team from our shop in the days to come.
What it boils down to is this... midlevels need to know their scope of practice, and stay within it. As healthcare costs go up and reimbursement goes down (thanks, federal government), many hospitals are turning to MLPs as a 'cheaper' option, and using the "overseeing" MD/DO as a liability offset. That's bogus, because 1) its not realistic... no human can oversee that much MLP work and continue to manage higher-acuity cases on their own, and 2) I've seen too many cases royally screwed up by MLPs who are "working beyond their scope", so to speak.... yet they're pushing for a bigger scope of practice and more autonomy.
If your concern is truly for your (future) patients as you say... then you should recognize that you want the best and most appropriate care for them... and that means making sure that you don't have an MLP doing things they don't know how to do well.
Your assertion that we "make bonus money" off of the MLPs is just incorrect. At my new gig - I'm a straight-up employee with a good hourly and benefits. I'll be paid the same no matter how many patients are seen by either me, or the MLP. However, I will be responsible for anything bad that happens should they make a mistake. See... I get all the responsibility, and no additional benefit.
You're still a student. You will see... Yes, you will see.
