1: Take 245 million and live like John MacAfee
2: Pay five hundred academics ten grand each to say that all my pronouncements are True Marxism.

"Lying to investigators" is how the FBI, which to this day refuses to record interviews, frames people directly. You can't defend yourself, it's your word against the interviewer, who doesn't even write down notes as he goes, but writes it all down a few days after the interview, from "memory". They can literally write anything they want, and there is no recourse. Congratulations on your confession to 9/11.

There may be a doctor shortage, but there is no shortage of medical knowledge. All you are seeing is the artificial scarcity of the medical cartel, which restricts the credentialing institutions to enforce a shortage, increasing wages for credentialed doctors. This, however, is a dying model. My three-step solution:
1: Reducing the time, cost and eliminating the corrupt bottleneck of medical school. Break the AMA, streamline and prune the academic curricula, and Bob's your uncle.
2: AI. Current chatbots are probably medically superior in diagnosis to the average doctor available to the average american. This will only improve. The vast majority of doctor visits could probably be a pic uploaded to an app on your phone, with results in minutes and your prescription auto-ordered.
3: Crush the inevitable revolt of the doctors and all their stakeholders.
I saw a tweet to the effect of:
"I bought this before I knew he was a Nazi" bumper sticker on
1: A tesla - shitlib
2: A Ford - troll
3: A Volkswagen - legend
