Now compare population demographics between 1970 and the present and you'll find they track fairly parallel.
There is, however, a nursing shortage in this country. Why aren't more people able or willing to train as nurses?
Math challenged much? Please explain why the population of administrators would grow at a much higher rate than that of physicians. Here, I'll set it up for you:
If the rate of growth of administrators corresponds to the growth of the general population, then the ratio of physicians to the general population is: a: staying the same; b) increasing; or c) decreasing.
Which is it and why?
Since your chart only goes up to 2009, and the PPACA was not passed until 2010, and not fully implemented until 2014, at a guess I'd say the increase in administrators had to do with the multiplicity of insurers and their multiplicity of forms and codes and mounds of paperwork which required more and more people to shuffle all that paper.
What you need to do is find a chart that starts in 2014 to see whether the figures from 2009 have increased, decreased, or remained the same. Can you do that?
*sigh* It must be sad going through life in such an incurious fugue state. It's incredibly easy to find more information, if you actually cared to learn.
And the remainder of your post shows that you could and did. Congratulations.
