Sounds like income envy to me.

Sounds to me, like what is needed is far more competition.

Just saying.

While I agree 100% with the opposition Cruz has to government controlling medicine, there is equally a segment of America which controls medicine to keep it costly.

To the extent that is us, I likewise oppose that monopoly.

American medicine needs to be completely overhauled.

Yes, it does kinda come across that way, but it’s not. My brother in law is FAR richer than this guy, and I respect how he made it. In fact, I respect how both of them made it. If I had the business connections this guy had I’d like to do the same thing.

I worked on a contract once where the lowest paid guy there made $27 an hour and the highest paid guy made just under $250 an hour. They all did the same work. I respected that the guy that made the higher salary was able to negotiate that and really did not respect the guy at the bottom. I’m only saying my acquaintence intelligently took advantage of a system that really should not exist. But while it does, why not take advantage of it.

Kinda like professional sports careers.

Regarding income, I moved from Seattle to a small farm in central Kentucky and “gave up a high standard of living for a high quality of life.” At my age and level of wisdom, you figure out that money is a very relative thing. It is not what I pursue, directly.
