The author wrote this in the comments in response to a reader's comment about the value of structured data:
But reflect that a U.S. doctor might earn $600,000 per year, the nurse’s salary might be $120,000 per year, and the same task could be accomplished by a worker in India or Cambodia, starting from the unstructured data, at a cost of $2 per hour.
Let's assume I didn't already think this guy was way off the mark... that comment right there makes me think he's just an arrogant twat. Never mind the huge privacy nightmare of having some "$2/hr worker in Cambodia" sifting through our medical records on Google Drive.
