Like everyone gets their cut until you turn around and you go, wait a second, we've passed so much antisocial policy that, do you wear glasses or contacts?

Okay, if you've ever wondered why your contacts are so expensive and you've ever wondered why going and getting a new eye prescription is so expensive, it's because the ophthalmologists want it that way.
And they have passed incredible amounts of policy.
It's a cartel that has passed a ton of policy that makes it really hard to automate a lot of these procedures and therefore drive down the cost.

It's too expensive for most people to do, but she's proving a model.
And that model, as long as the teachers unions allow it, will diffuse to a public school within two years is my bet.
