Entreprenuership: It Can Dramatically Reduce the Cost of Chronic Illness to Tax Payers

I strongly believe that entrepreneurship is a viable and dramatically under utilized career option for people with chronic illnesses. It's critical during this time of economic crisis when the US health care system is spiraling out of control and managing the cost of chronic illness is one of our major concerns as a country at large that we look out of the box for solutions. I am of the believe that entrepreneurship is part of the solution we desperately need to help to decrease the cost to our society of chronic illness and in developing a societal safety net for those with chronic illnesses. Currently, vast numbers of Americans who live with a chronic illness (Remember, 1/3 of the US population has a chronic illness folks and this is number is only going to increase in the next decade...) rely on some for of government assistance including disability or are dramatically under employed because of the need to access health insurance from an employer pool because they are unable to thrive as part of the "traditional workforce" and at the same time take the appropriate steps to take care of themselves. Learn how we can easily fix this and dramatically REDUCE the cost of chronic illness to tax payers in my next few vlog posts!
