Better healthcare for fewer people. Might work well for space exploration.

So just like for-profit health care customers must avoid rural regional hospitals hollowed out by VCs to be able to gain the better outcomes in a system hurdling toward catastrophe, space explorers must carefully avoid paths of a growing amount of space debris in a LEO system also hurdling toward catastrophe.

In both cases, I don't think the system works well without assuming spherical cows or something like that.

Edit: ah, I see it's "hurtling." Although I guess in both cases you have to dodge larger and larger geographic regions to claim success, so a bit like hurdling. :)

More like none healthcare for the bottom 20%, bankruptcy for the next 20%, and acceptable coverage for the rest.

Great system...

Better how? Less dollars in means worse, more expensive care for those who can afford
