Look what happened to the cost curve of laser corrective eye surgery, which was mostly outside the whole scam architecture. Prices started high and volume low. Competing providers drove prices down and volume up. The magic of the free market worked.

LASIK pricing came down (just like flat screen TVs) bc it isn’t covered by insurance.
