AILING HEALTH CARE SYSTEMS, FAIL TO CARE FOR YOU



  BOOKING THE DEFAULTERS & MAKING THEM PAY FOR IT 


  WHAT AILS OUR HEALTH CARE SYSTEM ??


Diagnosing the aliment that health care is suffering from, has been tough for the people who govern and finance the system: the medical staff who toil 24/7 inside the air tight bubble, the poor ignorant guinea pigs who offer themselves for scientific treatments, and the hungry corporations who feed and poison the common man with their toxic harmful processed food products. All the above four agencies are inside the system. To arrive at the differential diagnosis, some one impartial and not connected with the system has to study in depth from outside. It pretty easy, and a piece of cake for a trained Value engineer and creative Industrial engineer like myself, to take in the total picture of all the elements involved and process them to evolve a workable practical solution. Since this solution is so far advanced and 25 years ahead of its time that the concerned parties may find it difficult to accept and implement it right now, though eventually this is the only way out for every one involved. We will have to think out of the box to arrive at the best possible solution to this century old problem of health care.
WAIT AND WATCH TACTIC
Let us start with the world’s top most troublesome problem as an analogy – Smuggling of drugs. How are we tackling it today? By policing it, chasing it after the act has been committed. We wait for the drug lords to buy the stuff off the farmers, wait for them to process it and do value addition to it, again wait for them to smuggle it across the borders in ever new ways. We wait for intelligence tips to arrive, and yet again wait for the actual stuff to arrive to catch it, if we can.
POLICING THE ACT PASSIVELY

Thousands of police officers, border security forces, k-nine units, cars and helicopters by the hundreds are employed to do this job today. If not billions but many trillions of dollars are spent every year unsuccessfully in the effort to contain this drug problem. In vain goes all this herculean effort because our children are still doing drugs and bringing untold misery into the families involved. As a government agency, we aught to be proactive and one step ahead of the drug lords to beat them at their game. 

BEING PROACTIVE IS THE SOLUTION

The solution is very simple. Who is buying up 90% of the world’s coffee? Starbucks and Tim Horton’s & MacDonald’s. Just like them we go out and procure 98% of the raw heroin/poppy from the farmers and do what we want to do. We could even ask the farmers to harvest the crops much before they blossomed since we intend to destroy them. Ship it to an undisclosed location and dispose it off, by burning it and generating power. Alternately process it for medicinal purpose and huge governmental profits.
REALLOCATING THE RESOURCES & FUNDS

This would render most of the police force surplus to be utilized in other areas. They would still be required to track down the small time individual poppy growers. Trillions of dollars would become available for critical health care management. Now that you have abundant funds, let’s see how to spend a fraction of it to get extraordinary results.
DEMANDING LUNG CANCER TREATMENT WHILE SMOKING CONTINUES

Poor logic on part of the patients & the Doctors

Coming back to our key issue of health care management, we observe that the poor guinea pigs has been given absolute freedom to do as they like, even if it means going on the road to destruction, and expecting the big brother, their governments, to rescue them later with all paid for health care plans, while they continue with bad eating habits. The governing agency is too busy with hundreds of higher ranking international priorities, including re-election to office; hence this issue takes a back seat in their agendas. 

WAITING FOR PUBLIC TO FALL SICK 

The highly talented medical staff is busy doing what they have been trained for; treating the human body after the DAMAGE has been done. Like our police force they wait and watch till the people fall sick, and the guinea pigs to be carried into the hospitals. Additionally these doctors are always treating the symptoms, the effect, in the body and not the cause of sickness, which happens to be beyond their realm and scope of work.

FOOD MANUFACTURING CORPORATIONS MUST BE ACCOUNTABLE

Finally the profit hungry corporations are responsible for all the degeneration caused to the common man’s health. Who is going to hold them accountable? They have been getting away very easily till now, but time has come to put an end to all this mess.
Personally, I would go a step further to the very root of the epidemic, by procuring the poppy seeds themselves and destroying them systematically and clandestinely. In a matter of three to five crop cycles poppy seeds can be in the extinct category. We have to think out of the box for creative solutions. I have spearheaded numerous committees at my company to help evaluate the feasibility of major new projects. One note worthy project was the setting up of new 10 million tonne steel plant on the eastern coast of India. After my findings and in-depth study it was scrapped ceremoniously. I have been the official Think Tank for all Value Engineering workshops/teams, apart from my normal routine

   UTOPIAN HEALTH CARE MANAGEMENT  - A SNEAK PREVIEW


DEFAULTING CORPORATIONS ASKED TO FIX UP THE DAMAGE


Time has come to take a peep into the CRYSTAL BALL for the Western half of the world.  The doctor – medicine scene has degenerated beyond repair. It has reached levels of INSANITY. These food manufacturers continue marketing richer and bigger portions again and again, expecting different results every time.  In short they have embraced SELF DEFEATING policies and egoistic attitudes, that their corporations are more important than the nation. The picture changed radically for worse, by 2020, which is just around the corner. Like the housing market, this bubble burst with such catastrophic effects, that some harsh steps had to be taken, within the basic frame work of total freedom.
INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS FROM GLOBAL THINK TANKS

The best think tanks in the world were summoned to find innovative solutions to this devastating problem. They brain stormed and came up with these following proposals. The anti lobbying law was enacted and passed banning any spending by these hungry corporations on lobbying of every kind, direct or indirect. Another sub law was added to the above, which made it legal, for the affected public and the governments to sue these companies for playing with health of future citizens of the nation, for staggering compensations.
EMPOWERING THE PUBLIC & PRIVATIZING  HEALTH CARE
The federal taxes for personal incomes and corporate profits were marginally reduced and the health care plans dissolved.  The message was clear. Here, take your money and manage your own health with your very own personalized health care plans.
RECALL OF DEFECTIVE VEHICLES LOGIC, APPLIES TO FOOD COMPANIES TOO

In lieu of the reduced corporate taxes the corporations were asked to take up the responsibility of health care management and expenses. The law makers additionally argued on the following premises. If the auto manufacturers are compelled to recall millions of defective and unsafe vehicles which could possibly lead to fatalities down the road, then why not apply the same logic to the food manufacturers.                
MISLEADING THE INNOCENT PUBLIC TO INGEST WRONG STUFF 

The food and liquor manufacturing companies were directed to take over the hospitals and fix up their mistakes of misleading the innocent youth on the fatally wrong path. They were required to manage clinics and hospitals, with the profits they made off the poor gullible public, who were Hexed by these very corporations with their false propaganda.
The hospital for mouth and lung diseases was allocated to the tobacco companies.
The hospital for obesity and heart diseases was offloaded on to the food corporations and liquor commissions.
The diabetic clinics were handed over to coffee cafes, tea kiosks, chocolate companies, and candy manufacturers.
The mental health institutions were forced upon meat processing and gaming corporations.
Thus the government washed off their hands from the painful and perpetual issues of health care, its cost-burden and management. This way a major catastrophe was averted very smartly and profitably. The above innovative change was a Utopian step for the troubled West.
TRANSPARENT PREMISE OF THESE FOOD COMPANIES
It worked because these companies managed their hospitals and clinics very professionally and effectively, keeping the same philosophy of CUSTOMER FIRST. They adopted a unique pattern of admitting patients into the clinics and hospitals. They adopted a two window system: PAYING window and NON-PAYING window. The paying window was reserved strictly for indolent, alcoholics, smokers, overweight, and addiction prone public. The non paying window was reserved for active, teetotalers, non smokers, lean and addiction free public. The premise of this system was transparent and simple. If a person could afford rich foods, exotic liquors, expensive cigarettes and luxurious cars then he could afford to pay for his costly illness and sickness too. These companies were happy making additional profits off the rich man which helped pay for the poor non paying patients who truly required the expensive treatments. It did not make sense with these companies that people should consume in large quantities, stick with harmful habits, and ask for medical treatments at the same time. For example a chain smoker would demand medical treatment for his asthma/throat cancer, how foolish is his logic.

ANALOGY OF HOLES IN THE BUCKET 
It was like filling up water, in a bucket which had big holes at the bottom. Why would anyone use such a defective vessel, to fill up and truly believe that it will fill up at some point of time? It was akin to try and button up your jacket only to find out that it has a zipper for closing up.
“These coarse people of bad habits and shallow judgments do not deserve such a beautiful and anatomical a structure as the human body. They deserve merely a sack to put in food and let out again.” I fully agree with Lala Hardyal who wrote this many years ago.
PARADIGM SHIFT - PREVENTIVE MEDICINE
These corporations additionally & cleverly leased out all the health clubs and fitness gymnasiums in the country. It was free for all, but mandatory for the non paying clients to use them on a regular basis. It became more important to prevent than to cure. Hence 80% of the effort was spent on prevention and just 20% on curing the malady. This major paradigm shift brought down the total cost of health care drastically. The idea is that the doctor takes a back seat and allows the common public to take personal responsibility of their health. The Doctor was supposed to be a coach/counselor and that was the original idea to have family doctors to help in preventing the diseases rather than curing them.
VOTE POWER OF PUBLIC TO BLACK MAIL THE GOVERNMENT 

Today it does makes sense with the governments handing out free health care plans, no questions asked. If they ever did question, then their governments would be voted out of power, on the basis of discrimination. This is the key word. The power of the public to black mail the governments. The future of these governments can be seen in the crystal ball.                     
We do not need another Nostradamus to tell us what is going to happen 10 or 50 years from now. The writing is on the wall, for every one of us to read, if we want to. This global writing too is heavily coded and to get the real meaning it must be deciphered locally.
Personally, I feel the above Utopian approach and health care model, has to be tried out in an educated manageable   advanced country like Norway or Switzerland first to make a success story and then the rest of the world will line up  to borrow the concept, of course at a high cost and perpetual royalties for life. My intuition says that sooner or later the world has to come to its knees begging for such a unique solution to the most pressing and financially draining problem. How do the industrial manufacturers maintain their factories/plants & stay ahead of their competitors? Naturally by following the same very preventive maintenance concept they stay ahead. It should  definitely work in the Medical field too equally well. I am suggesting a pilot project on a country level as we do in any engineering field.

PROGRAMMING YOUNG MINDS EARLY & CORRECTLY



PROGRAMMING YOUNG MINDS EARLY & CORRECTLY


SLAVES OF TECHNOLOGY & ELECTRONIC GADGETS


Childhood fun and ecstasy have been snatched away by today’s technology and it’s overpowering ever newer gadgets. We have become slaves again even though our forefathers fought and died for our freedom. We are not free at all. We are slaves of internet, emails, video games, and computers. We are deeply addicted to texting and cell phone chatting. We are literally drowning in the ocean of U-tube, Facebook updating & twitter mania. 


What will all of do if the INTERNET was to CRASH, & never come back. We would become EMPTY & that is what the CREATION needs to recover to its original state of PURITY.  


INACTIVE ON THIS COUNT THEREFORE OBESE

Our children suffer extreme slavery by being INDOORS & INDOLENT. This adversely affects their physical & mental development making them obese, sick, dehydrated, poor people skills and introverts. Who is going to bail out our teens and pre-teens from this predicament? You kids and teenagers, have to help yourself and get out of this addictive slavery and claim back your freedom before it becomes lethal and catastrophic. Time is running out, act right now or else you will miss the bus. This is a very serious matter because it has direct bearing on your mental development and physical health.


SPECIAL BOARDING SCHOOLS FOR THE ROYAL KIDS

In olden days the Kings and Emperors had army of scholars and teachers in their palaces to cater to the educational needs of their princes and princesses. Their children were taught all kinds of skills, from horse riding to sword fencing, multiple languages, and host of other specialties. Many times they were sent away to far off remote places for hard training and tough living conditions which helped in their proper grooming as natural heirs to the kingdom. Our man Gautama Buddha opted out of this stereo type education, abandoning the luxuries of his palace to search for the truth, all on his own and succeeded wonderfully. I salute him and am grateful for giving us the secret to happiness. 

ARMED FORCES TRAINING HAPPENS AT THE WRONG TIME

Today we have the military training which comes close to the above analogy but the timing is little too late. First our teens waste away their precious teen years getting the wrong inputs and then the military spends twice the effort to right the wrongs on those who opt out for the military carriers. 


LIFE LESSONS HAVE TO LEARNT ANYHOW

The others who remain in civilian jobs have to sweat it out the hard way. When you do not conform to the industrial and social norms you are left out of the main stream, doing low end work for your survival. These inputs are especially for all pre-teens and teens who wish to excel in life and all kinds of fields. It is strategically structured to put things in the right perspective for the children to decipher for themselves. These life lessons serve as a personal counseling session, one on one which could last up to six hours if not more, but you must take your own sweet time to master the life lessons. When you have mastered them go out and teach them to another friend/junior. It will help you recapitulate your lessons in a very subtle manner.                                       


Personally, I was very fortunate to study in good schools and even go to a boarding school for my all round development of my faculties, motor skills, social interaction foundations, and sense of discipline. I still remember my dormitory, bed & closet in the “Nilagiri House” which sat high upon a hillock apart from the other three houses. The daily treks to the classrooms and dining halls was a fair amount. I was thrilled to be living in such a paradise. Today after 50 years when I look back at these indispensable inputs I had at the Lawrence School Sanawar, I feel it was the best thing that ever happened for my, self-esteem and self confidence. With out these inputs I would have been a different person gone astray, a very average man, almost a misfit in life. My elder brother enlisted in the Indian Army as an officer and he had a big hand in influencing our childhood development too.


WELL FROGS VERSES SEA FROGS

 
LACK OF EDUCATION AT GRAND FATHER STAGE


We all grow up as well frogs with hundreds of limitations upon us. Don’t do this, don’t do that, this is wrong, that is not acceptable. Why we are like this?  It is so, because our parent well frogs were brought up this way, with thousands of limitations, restrictions, imposed upon them, by their ignorant, less educated grand parent frogs, in the same small “well” environment. Everything that we are today has been brought forward, from the past generations. We well frogs internalized it all, our parents beliefs, superstitions, notions, perceptions of life and their small world. All this learning happened without our knowing, because we were very young and ignorant then. Our hard drives, in the brain were brand new, and untouched.  

FIXATED ON OUR BELIEFS & TEACHINGS - 

Now we are grown up, and mature enough to understand this folly. We well frogs, take one leap across the well and believe that this is the whole world, totally unaware of the reality. If there are lots of trees around your well, it is bound to be dark, down inside, the well. Hence we automatically perceive and believe, very strongly that there is no sun. But sun does exist. Our belief does not change reality.  
  
STUCK IN THE SMALL ENVIRONMENT


If a sea frog happens to drop into our wells and tell us about the big powerful sun and its light and heat, we will fight with him, deny it to ourselves, defend our wrong belief and feel very miserable with ourselves. Is this right or wrong on your part? Wrong definitely, but we still do it, all the time. During high winds and storms on the earths surface, we well frogs are unaffected by them. Deep down in our wells, it is always calm and all we have is small ripples. We do not believe in storms, because we do not know about them. But our sea frog, friend feels differently. He tells us about gigantic waves, as high as ten storied buildings and killer storms. Again, we do not believe him. We call him a liar, aggressively deny him, and defend our narrow belief of ripples. We feel upset and troubled inside us. Is this attitude of ours to keep a closed mind, right or wrong? You decide for yourself.

DIFFERENCE OF DAY & NIGHT - UNBELIEVABLE 

We might have microscopic fish, worms and insects inside our small wells. The biggest fish could be say two cm long and you truly believe that this is the biggest fish possible. Now again our friendly sea frogs will talk about twenty feet long and fifty tone whale fishes and hundreds of other marine life. Once again, we do not believe him and call him names and a lunatic for imagining all this. It is fiction for us but a true reality for him. This is the way we continue to live in our small “Well World” of wrong beliefs and notions and finally die. It does not matter to anyone, just you. Therefore, wake up from your slumber, of small world and be informed correctly. Look beyond your well.
 

CLOSED MIND & TUNNEL VISION
 

One day it rains very heavily and fills up the well, with flood waters. The poor well frogs are out of their well and floating about. You feel lost and uncomfortable, but the flood waters have no mercy for you, your stupid beliefs and you are swept away, by the strong flow of water into the sea first and then into the ocean. We are taken out of our little illusion about the tiny world and thrown into the big, real world. All our foolish beliefs are shattered, we are devastated, and feel defeated and confused. The sun is up and shinning brightly, the sea water is salty, not sweet. The waves are five stories high and the big fish are really gigantic and ready to eat you up.               
 

OPEN UP YOUR MINDS & GROW UP

Dear well frogs, be open minded, always. Do not own any preconceived notions, stupid beliefs that have been brought forward, from previous generations. My own ancestor well frogs, five hundreds ago, believed very strongly, that the earth was flat. But the earth is round. It took one daring, well frog to think, out of the box, and believe otherwise that the earth is round, and not flat. He was Galileo, my hero. When he observed that the ships were disappearing at the horizon, he concluded that the earth had to be round and not otherwise. 
Recently, we have gone up in space, confirmed the fact for sure, that the earth is not only round, but spherical and the oceans are not emptying out in space, as our ancestors believed so.



Personally, I am open minded and willing to experiment with new ideas, theories and concepts. I have learnt most of the natural healing practices but the single most concept of Cosmic Energy as the basis of our health is so very true and self affirming that we need not go hunting any further. I am forever grateful to the community for pulling me in this direction. I am game to any thing out of this world. We have to give all new paradigms a try, and I do it always. Working for 25 years in Tata Steel an integrated plant made me into a sea frog. The scale of exposure here was invaluable, which prepared me to venture out of India to Canada, a foreign unknown country. Now I can say with authority that the biggest magic trick is to remain happy & peaceful in this world of suffering, turmoil & grief.
