The AMA has an anticompetitive monopoly where they limit the number of seats at medical schools and keep medical costs sky high since demand is inelastic and disguise it by blaming insurance companies. It’s why reforms never work here. 27% of our GDP is stolen by doctors and hospitals. They keep supply smaller than demand so doctors and hospitals literally charge thousands an hour.… read more “AMA”
This was a seven week series on Zwift called the Zwift Classics. I am by far not the best rider in my category, but I had a good time slot for my races and a very strong group of competitors to draft. Every week saw me setting personal bests!

Another highly unpopular opinion: Banning gas vehicles is a really bad idea.
California just passed rules that will ban the sale of new gas vehicles entirely by 2035 with a phase in period starting in 2026. Washington state, Oregon, and New York are all adopting the rule.

This destroys our safety. All of our food and other products we use daily come from heavy trucking, shipping. All food is grown using diesel tractors, and oil derived fertilizer.
