*Making major changes in our culture in regard to Healthcare
MONJORONSON:  Yes, we anticipate that they will come about in the next decade or so, between ten to fifteen years.  It is a culture-bending process, which means that it changes the beliefs and opinions and attitudes and perspectives and expectations of everyone who is involved.  And of course, as every human mortal has a body, it involves every one of you.  A major change will be from moving your healthcare system from profit making, as a profit center, to a service center, which is self-supportive and sustainable.  We have spoken of that before.  This will be the first and most important attitudinal change in this field for it to become sustainable.  Profits tend to skew, change, or bend the rules of service to individuals.  It is important that the healthcare system becomes sustainable so that it approaches the treatment of individuals and their bodies, minds, emotions and spirit in a holistic way, rather than the whole-ism being centered on the profit making centers.  Do you understand?

MONJORONSON:  Yes, you will continue to see an aggravation [between] those who have and those who have not.  What is occurring in the “Occupy Wall Street” phenomena is also part and parcel replicated in the difficulties of healthcare, where those who have means have opportunities to healthcare, and those who do not have means, do not have opportunity for healthcare or it is severely limited.  You will find in the future that healthcare will take on a different hue to it, a different tenor.  It will not be viewed as “life at any cost,” but focus on the “quality of life” that is reasonable for everyone.  Those who are egregiously wealthy, of course, will have the options for extension of life at any cost, whereas everyone else will have quality healthcare that may not include those ultimate, extra-ordinary treatments to continue their lives.  In the medical profession there has been a “head-in-the-sand” attitude towards death, and that it is “life at any cost.”  This is unreasonable—unreasonable when you realize that approximately 80% of all medical costs are spent on individuals who die within two weeks.  This is not realistic.  Death is a natural process, it [can be] very welcome.  It will come under great scrutiny in the future, and it will not be a mysterious, unknown decision process.  Yes, there is always room for miracles, and miracles will be demonstrated perhaps on an even more frequent basis in the future in the medical services field.  Questions of the morality of who should die and who should live will not be a question at all, but rather it will be a situation where those who have the capacity to enjoy quality life after treatment will receive that treatment.  It is all about the quality of life and living.
