Is there another reason?

If you have high attrition, you have prices going up, you would think that the way to solve that is to have more veterinarians.

And that's just not what they're doing.

Literally, I, at this point, know several vet schools that have just...

Stop Developments gave up because the AVMA basically told them that they're not going to get a license.

That's crazy.

Oh, there's totally few.

Like, just think, I can tell you this statistic.

There's about one veterinarian for every 3,000 pets in America.

For context, the ratio in human health care is 1 to 20.

No way.

The disparity is so huge and the amount of vet schools is so little.

We could have dozens of vet schools pop up and it would still maybe not be enough in the next decade.

And like I said, this trade organization is refusing to launch any new schools.

It's very much cartel behavior.

And what's crazy is I feel like then this gaslighting happens where I'm painted as the bad guy.

And they'll say, this guy Joe or Dutch, he's just self-interested.

He's the one that wants your money.

And I'm like, how is that possible when I'm reducing the cost?

Yeah.
