We have a primary care crisis, a healthcare cost crisis, and a chronic disease management crisis. We have brought multiple stakeholders together to dramatically improve all three. What are your thoughts?
I am beginning to realize that all our problems, across all our culture and all of its economic sectors and industries is the same problem. Hard to pin it down, but I'd say it's a combination of slavish reliance on the capitalistic, profit-seeking, and exploitative model and a lack of leadership. The political and economic systems, including healthcare, have been bought off by whomever has the most power and money. One of the inevitable results is greater and greater concentration of wealth and power, and greater and greater inequality.

In other words, the "system" is behaving exactly the way it is designed to behave.
