My Health Care Plan

For every dollar spent on health care, 87% is spent on doctors, hospitals, prescriptions and tests (supplies).  So I'd like to focus on the 87%.  Of the 87% of health care costs in the United States, 80% of that is used by 20% of the people because of lifestyle choices.  Drinking, smoking, not exercising and not eating right.  I'd like to tackle the problem right there.  This is where Your Produce Man comes in...getting people to eat right!    A decade ago, I told restaurants in Orlando, Florida that if they don't start serving healthier food in America, they would lose business because customers will be spending more money on health care, not eating out.  Get people...especially kids...on a path of eating right.  Here's my simple Health Care plan:  Give every American citizen $40 a week that can only be used to buy fruits and vegetables.  A strange thing happened on our way to the health food store and the gym...our kids got fat.  Perhaps a few more fruits and vegetagbles in our diets...could do wonders.
