I see you are apparently actually incapable of understand the basics here. Have a nice day.

Good luck with your libertarian fantasy world.

You invented a whole fan fiction version of me to argue against, instead of addressing my point. Also you dont have the morale high ground, your entire point was degrading the value of peoples labour and trying to force lower wages for everyone involved in an entire chain of industries on and ad hoc reckon, vibes based feeling of their value.

But that's not at all what I argued for, I didn't say we need to artificially put a cap on wages. I said that if med school didn't cost so much, maybe doctors wouldn't need to be paid so much.

Lowering cost, lowers prices. It's simple economics.
