But he doesn't work in a factory - so he must be a complete failure.

Wait when his radiology job is outsourced (it will happen within couple of years or sooner) and all his work and sacrifices are set at naught. Just be careful with preaching the Free Market Unholy Gospel to him at that time or you might became unholy martyr.

LOL!

Let me see, you're saying that the radiology machines he calibrates will (1) be outsourced to someplace like India presumably and (2) the hospital will consider it cheaper to fly thousands of patients on a 48 hour New Jersey to Bangalore roundtrip flight on a regular monthly basis for radiology treatments?

I will make the rational counterassertion that the hospital will continue to treat patients living in New Jersey at its New Jersey facility.

I'll let him know that you think his hospital will start flying his patients 12,000 miles every month for their treatments.

He'll have a hearty chuckle.

and all his work and sacrifices are set at naught.

Even though your wacky scenario is ridiculous on its face, he continues to look ahead - contemplating a medical career as an oncologist. As I said, he's no slacker. The guy thinks big and works hard.

Just be careful with preaching the Free Market Unholy Gospel to him at that time or you might became unholy martyr.

Don't project your view that economics is religion onto me or him.

We're both adults and we both know that you need to keep learning and striving as long as you live - and the more economic freedom we have to accomplish those goals the better.

Economics is a means, not an end.
