The United States spends nearly 1/3 of the federal budget on healthcare. It is by far our biggest national expense, 2x defense and 100x what goes to border security.
$800B buys us a world-beating military. But $1.5T on healthcare buys us a country that is overweight, dying young, and we still haven't gotten rid of the fax machines.
If we can't reduce healthcare spending (and maintain Social Security), to run a surplus we would have to find about $1.7T worth of cuts from $2.7T of defense, infrastructure, science, and veterans' benefits. Are we going to cut the DoD budget by half? NASA? NSF? VA?
The only solution is to somehow buy more health outcomes with less spending. And luckily, Americans are very, very good at figuring out how to do this if incentivized properly.
I collected a set of policy reforms for the new administration that will help turn America's greatest strength - the creativity and entrepreneurialism of its people - towards this very important problem.

Three-In-A-Row for Glasgow's Green & White - Congratulations to Brendan and the Bhoys! 👏
There is a crazy amount of talented folks locked up in corporate big tech jobs that don’t let them build the way they should.
I’m hoping a lot of them actually come over to startups, and they realize, oh, this is what it’s like to run fast again.
