But how we pay for it is the defining issue here.

How do you keep the system incentivized to take care of you?

If I tell everybody,

in America that you have healthcare, and then I tell the doctors, give them healthcare, but they don't deal with the financial costs, then you all of a sudden start to restrict the access to care.

So you can get the healthcare, like you do in socialized medicine countries, you just have to wait six months or a year or longer, or you don't get the care at all.

And when you start having that discussion with Americans, they say, wait, wait, wait, hold on a second.

Yes, of course I want to get the healthcare for an affordable price.

But the fundamental question is, how long till I actually get the care?

Yes Procedures you mentioned cosmetic surgery.

That's definitely a trend And also there's some procedures that we don't do in America themselves because some cells there's that they're still going through the regulatory process but the bigger issues really is one David's raising which is Most Americans complain that the health care system is broken almost none would leave the country to get top-tier health care for a life-threatening problem and

And so we have this sort of bizarre opportunity.

I do think it's an opportunity.

How do we make the top tier health care available to folks who need it, but do it at a price that is sustainable?

And that's where I think your specialty area comes into play.

Before this administration, I think because we didn't have the right technologies to promise

convincingly that we could do this, there was a hesitancy to make big shifts.

We're taking big swings because we think AI's ready, we think the tech transformation that could happen in healthcare is worth subsidizing, and by that I mean making it possible for top tier entrepreneurs who are building apps that can help you deal with the medical crisis that you're dealing with, their diabetes.

We can put money into the system to make that worth you doing so you can get investors to support you, you can get a fair valuation.

I think there's a hybrid of that that de-risks it a little bit.

Early on, there are definitely problems with hallucination and the like that Americans, we're very intolerant to.
