So lets just say the savings as described in the article by not paying doctors as much would be $100billion (cut doctors salaries by half). Spending on US Healthcare was in 2015-16 was $3.2 trillion. Assuming there are no side effects in the market (such as number of students entering medical school would decrease etc) the $100 billion in savings is 3.1% which is a very small figure.

In Bangalore, sale price/monthly rent ratio in an ok neighborhood would be around 200. In a pretty good neighborhood this go up to to 300-400. Mumbai is more expensive than this. Nobody buys property in India and makes a killing off the rents -- its mainly the price appreciation (inflation is around 6-7%).

If the government decides that the companies can hire people with the highest skill or the highest pay, it will be very hard for startups to hire H1Bs (or founders to get H1B visas). If a new system is being put into place hopefully it takes into consideration factors such as size of company, location/cost of living etc

Taking a different view here. The best ideas seem obvious in the future. I thought he was very clear articulate in how he does his hires (he would be the hiring manager here). While yes the manager needing help answers the "who" part of the hiring question, Aaron answers the "how".

You don't have to go through the lottery again if you have already gone through the cap selection process once
