The AVMA, it's really weird in this industry.

And I think I just, again, I'm here because like you shine a light on things.

It sucks what they're doing.

Yeah.

So the AVMA controls accreditation for veterinary colleges.

Okay, like this happens in no other, like law schools don't have a trade association decide like who gets to have a law school.

Yeah, in this industry, the AVMA controls what is deemed a vet school and they have chokehold that completely.

It goes back to when you have less supply, you can charge more and because people are willing to pay more for it.

It's like, I hate to draw that line, but I think that's what's happening.

It like makes...

And again, I think I'm a curious person and I try to understand, could it be something else?

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.
