Given the current state of science funding, I'm thinking my phd's not really worth all that much!

And I know a lot of other post-docs that feel pretty similar.

However, most of them aren't American.

We pretty much tell any of the college students or post-bacs that come through the lab - md/phd if you want the phd.
