Just came back to check replies. This is a great talk.
He mentions Obamacare and the digitization of records, which is very on point and a similar issue. In the interview he mentions, Obama says:
“In some cases, you have economic incentives against making the system better; you have service providers — people make money on keeping people’s medical records — so making it easier for everyone to access medical records means that there’s some folks who could lose business. And that’s turned out to be more complicated than I expected.”
I think “more complicated than expected” is a hilarious and sad way to sum up the whole mess that is greed and Washington DC combined.
