I think a lot about how hard it is for us to imagine a better world. My foot kind of hurts. It’s been this way for years and I’ve changed shoes to something that’s better but I’d love to have it looked at by a podiatrist. But also every time I visit the doctor, despite having insurance, I end up having to pay a lot of money. So maybe I don’t see a doctor about my foot. It’s fine. But in a better world I wouldn’t have any reason not to get my foot checked up on. Maybe there is something that could be done for it and maybe it makes my life better. Or it’s fine and I get peace of mind and stop worrying. Now multiply this across the entire population. What if everyone had lower barriers to health care. The amount of population wide well being would increase a lot. And that’s the part I think we usually have a hard time conceptualizing when we think about a better world. But it’s a very real possibility!
