I would argue the best way to do things that will surpass your life is to have kids, love them and teach and train them in what is good and true and right and with all of the knowledge and wisdom you have, and then see them surpass you.

100% with you on the idea of increasing the supply of doctors and shortening medical education. My dad is an ophthalmologist and he does basically 3 surgeries that take up most of his work time: LASIK, cataract surgery, and cornea transplan

One reason for this is the artificially limited supply of doctors. The AMA combined with the government keeps the number of doctors down by keeping the number of medical schools and medical residencies low, driving up prices. Among many oth

I really think you need to reconsider your stance on private colleges.. For example, BYU and BYU-Idaho provide affordable education for tens of thousands of students every year. Sure they're religious, but they serve as price competiti

Anecdotal evidence, but I tore my meniscus playing football when I was 14. I thought I would have to have surgery but the doctor just told me to use crutches and a knee brace for a while. It healed up really well, didn't have any issue

I agree that we need to think about accessibility when we eliminate cars. We took our little kids (~6 months and <2) to Paris and the lack of elevators in the vast majority of subway stops made the whole trip absolutely awful. Lugging a
