Fred Reed's mathematical analysis of Trump's Wall proves that Trump is insincere, proves that Trump is mathematically incompetent, and earns Fred Reed an honorary nerd card:

    Didn't you get the memo? Government has been bought and paid for by business; it now exists to protect business interests first and foremost - all other benefits to the electorate trickle down from a thriving, maximally profitable business sector.

    Illegal driving kills people, and frightens many more - dead and frightened consumers are bad for business.

    Illegal pesticides kill people too, same principle: dead consumers spend no more.

    "Training" doctors is a whole other kettle of fish - now we're talking about throttling supply so that demand spikes to maximize payouts. Medical is a unique field in that people will pay virtually anything to avoid dying, so you want to make sure that doctors are just expensive enough to bankrupt the median family assets when someone dies so as to maximize that flow of capital out of the hands of the families and into the active economy via the luxury cars, real estate, travel and other things that the physicians and hospital investors will purchase with dying people's money.
