Early career health economists not familiar with Will and his work might benefit from knowing the significant and enduring contributions Will made to our field.

Thank you, Paul, for the enlightened discourse, humor, displays of emotion, and proof that practitioners of the dismal science do not have to be dismal themselves.

Addressing health care admin is a very worthy goal. But it's not a one-and-done. It's a process. Would love to see Trump Admin put such a process in place. And it will involve lots of changes.

Something worth pointing out about the plan to get rid of VA health care. It only saves money if you think that the vets shouldn't get services paid by gov't. If you want them to get services in another program, it'll likely cost more. The VA is very cheap.
