Title:
> The Great American Eye-Exam Scam
Subtitle:
> Why is it so difficult to get a new pair of glasses or contacts in this country? It’s easier pretty much everywhere else.
First line:
> On a beautiful summer day a few months ago, I walked down to the part of the Connecticut River that separates Vermont from New Hampshire, and rented a kayak. I pushed myself off the dock—and the next thing I remember is being underwater. Somehow, the kayak had capsized as it entered the river.
I'd much rather read a concise, 3 paragraphs outlining what is actually wrong with the system than this author's personal life story. If this trend continues the rise of summary generation add-ons/sites is inevitable and I for one will gladly give them my money when they ask, super tired of click bait titles that lead to winding narratives.
