Hospital Ponzi Scheme

Yesterday I drove Dr. Elaine Kindle the director of Life Focus Center to a hospital so she could advise a birth mother in her function as an adaption service provider (ASP). As I was waiting I noticed that many of the hospital personnel appeared overweight.

Later I walked by a snack vending machine. I looked at it since many years ago when I was a software engineer I had worked on a machine which accepted bank notes and I was curious to see a credit card swipe unite in the vending machine.

I could not help but notice the fried pork rind package. OK hospital, health, pork rinds – quite a disconnect. It reminded me of the wonderful Children’s Hospital Los Angeles where I donate blood. There is a McDonnalds attached to it. I kind of forgive them for that since the children are coming there sick and perhaps a little fun is good for them.

I continued looking at the snacks to see if there was a single healthy snack available. I could not find even one. Perhaps there is no healthy packaged commercial snack which could be sold in a vending machine (if not why not – also this is an opportunity for a health entrepreneur – I’m giving it freely so that someone will take up the challenge).

Anyway, as an overweight nurse came to the vending machine and bought some XXXX (I don’t want to say one brand of junk is worse or better than another brand of junk) I was thinking that this is a case of hospital Ponzi scheme. You give people bad diet to make them sick so they have to come to the hospital and their friends go to the vending machine and buy more crap (technical term) and so it goes….

A question I ask in the Michelangelo Weight Management Seminar is, “Would you put slug in the gas tank of a multimillion dollar classical Ferrari? Why then are you ready to put junk into you multibillion dollar body?”
