The Coming Jobs War - Jim Clifton Play Now | Play in Popup | Download

I just got done reading a good book called The Coming Jobs War by Jim Clifton who is the Chairman and CEO of Gallup that is worth the read.

The book goes into ways business leaders and the government can fix our current economic conditions in the United States.

Chapter Eleven in the book called FIX HEALTHCARE OR DESTROY JOB CREATION really stood out at me as to one of the options that we as American’s have direct control over. Healthcare costs are America’s biggest current fiscal drain. America’s healthcare bill is 10 times bigger than the annual war bill at a staggering cost of $2.5 trillion per year.

Prevention is the solution and is staring everyone right in the face. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that more than 75% of the total $2.5 trillion healthcare spending is on people with chronic, and in most cases preventable, conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, and obesity. If Americans just took new found individual responsibility for their own health, lifestyle, and well being, the looking healthcare disaster could be miraculously fixed.

If Americans were fit the healthcare problem would be fixed. The bottom line is that the big solutions lie within getting people to eat differently keeping their weight inline which cuts down healthcare costs. So until these unaffordable costs are reversed, until Americans greatly improve their health behaviors, the country is at too much of a competitive disadvantage to win the global war for jobs.

So what does this have to do with Direct Sales? Well Direct Sales companies are creators of jobs and income with a low barrier to entry. Anyone with the desire can go out and create an income stream which stimulates the ecomony and creates jobs.

Furthermore companies like ViSalus and their distributor force are doing their part in job creation and the war on obesity to cut down healthcare costs. ViSalus is all about getting fit and losing weight with the Body By Vi 90 Day Challenge while providing Americans a way to make a part-time or full-time income.

The book was very insightful and worth the read.

During the past 20 years, there has been a dramatic increase in obesity in the United States and rates remain high. In 2010, no state had a prevalence of obesity less than 20%. Thirty-six states had a prevalence of 25% or more; 12 of these states (Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and West Virginia) had a prevalence of 30% or more.

Turn on the radio and every other radio ad is about some type of weight loss product or diet solution. Dr OZ has now teamed up with Weight Watchers and started the Transformation Nation the Million Dollar You to help in fighting America’s obesity problem. What does this say? America is over weight and not getting any skinnier. The health and wealth industry is a multi-billion dollar industry.

According the the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) the number one cause of death is heart disease and Wikipedia says cardiovascular disease.

What is the main cause of heart disease? Being over weight.

If one keeps their weight under control and maintains a healthy lifestyle all other health issues can be drastically reduced and add years to one’s life.

There are many things in life you get a second change at like: relationship, finances, jobs, etc… Your health is one thing you do NOT get a second chance at so why not take care of yourself?  Tyler Ford
