Is our country getting healthier or sicker? Study after study shows that America spends more on health care than any other country in the world by a large margin.

“At HHS alone, we spend $1.7 trillion annually. This is nearly one-third of our entire federal budget and almost 7% of our country’s gross domestic product.” (Robert F. Kennedy, 2025)

Despite the enormous spending, our country’s health is failing. We have the highest rate of chronic disease in the world, and our life expectancy is declining, 1 in 5 children and adolescents are obese, and 1 in 36 children are diagnosed with autism. We are sicker than ever before.

How can we begin to fix it?

What are the root causes of these very poor results? It’s complex. It’s so complex that we must consider using a different way of thinking to begin to address it. We need Systems Thinking. Systems Thinking teaches us we’re all interconnected and that the system determines results more than individual action. If the system is properly set, it will make it easier for individuals to manage their health. The system was designed to fail us. It was designed to keep us sick and dependent on pharmaceuticals.

This is Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.’s strategy to Make America Healthy Again (MAHA):

· Preventative health care over “sick care”

· Vaccine safety, education, and personal choice

· Environmental health and pollution reduction

· Evidence-based holistic medicine (choice based on data)

· Cost transparency

· Reduce prescription drug pricing

· Address opioid crisis

· Support for rural health care providers and telehealth

· Modify financial incentives to increase health results, not revenue for pharmaceutical companies

This is a comprehensive “systems” approach which removes barriers so individuals can make improved individual health care decisions. Our current system makes it much more difficult because the barriers (environmental and lack of information) make it much more difficult for individuals to manage their own health.

They Lied

Trust in the system must be restored. The government and the medical profession lied to us during the Covid-19 Plandemic. Here is a list of some of the lies (per Steve Kirsch):

· Vaccines (Jabs) are safe and effective

· Masks keep you safe

· Vaccines are the only way

· Mandates are necessary

· We can trust CDC, FDA, NIH, WHO, Fauci

· Your doctor can be trusted because he/she is not threatened by the CDC, FDA, NIH

· Early treatments don’t work (Emergency Authorization of the vaccine is the only way)

· Liability protection for drug companies is necessary for health

· No one has died from the Covid-19 vaccine

· Autism is not caused by childhood vaccines schedule

· Our food is safe (not compromised by Big Food)

· We and our doctors can believe the medical journals (not compromised by Bid Pharma)

Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s strategy is designed to restore trust through truth (evidence-based holistic medicine). Implementing evidence-based holistic medicine that enables educated choice will go a long way toward restoring trust and improving individual health.

Big Food Also Lied

Another big lie emerged during the 1950’s when cardiac disease became a crisis. The lie began with a man called Ancel Keys. He was a persuasive physiologist who convinced Americans that fat in the diet caused fat in the arteries and that was the main cause of the cardiac crisis. The data now show that heavy cigarette smoking was the likely number one cause of this crisis in the 1950’s. The cigarette manufacturers of course lied about that too with scientists who for years claimed there was no correlation to smoking and heart disease.

Mr. Keys convinced everyone to switch to vegetable (seed) oils to lower cholesterol and prevent heart disease. This shift created other unintended consequences such as significant increases in obesity and chronic disease. In 2023 an estimated 60% of adults suffered with at least one chronic disease. And we know that those with chronic diseases were most likely in danger of death from the Covid-19 pandemic. Big Food hired some of the very scientists who worked in the tobacco industry.

“Now the food that was meant to nourish us is actually poisoning us, and the medicine that was meant to heal us is actually making us sicker.” -- Blaze TV Staff

We must have trust in our health care providers, the pharmaceutical companies, the food companies, the medical profession including medical journals. This trust has been undermined over time and Covid-19 began to uncover the deceit. While trust is important, these organizations do not deserve our blind trust. Until trust and integrity are restored, we must rely on our own research and informed decision making. Our lives depend on it.

Mindset Shift Is Needed

MAHA is using systems thinking to optimize an individual’s healthcare decision making and results. But individuals can make even greater improvements if they move from the mindset of blind dependence to preventative self-reliance.

Blind dependence is the predominant mindset in the medical area. We wait until we’re sick and then we go to the walk-in clinic. We need a shift more toward personal responsibility, self-sufficiency and preventative care. We must use accurate data to better manage our own health.

The current medical profession is treating symptoms and not the root cause of illness. This is how they are trained. This is why obesity, chronic disease, and life-expectancy results are worsening

The data shows prescription drug expenditures increasing every year since the turn of the millennium. Sixty-one percent of Americans claim to be taking at least one prescription medication. If our medical professionals were actually helping us to prevent disease, would prescriptions be growing 14% or more per year? Big Pharma seems to want us to be sick and dependent, not self-sufficient.

What is self-sufficiency?

Complete self-sufficiency is a contradiction. No one is really 100% self-sufficient because we are interdependent with each other and with the system within which we live. And the bible is clear, everyone needs God to be successful, healthy and self-sufficient.

Interdependence is foundational to societal living. It is also God’s intention for all Christians. After Jesus ascended to heaven, He sent the Holy Spirit to believers. To explain how talents given are to be used to serve each other.

“I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.” - John 15:5

The Holy Spirit distributes spiritual gifts as He sees fit to equip members of the Church to serve each other (verse 11). No gift is more important than another, as they all play a role within the Body of Christ. We need this interdependence relying on help from each other and not just dependence on the government or the medical establishment. Jesus helped introduce us to systems thinking.

We see dysfunctional dependence play out today in the government shutdown. 42 million Americans supposedly depend on Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (S.N.A.P.). That’s approximately 13% of the entire population. The political left strategically desires this dependency as a way of holding political power. (Wally Hauck, 2025)

Dependence encourages poor behavior. Regarding healthcare, if it’s considered a human right and is provided free with no accountability, it can encourage poor health habits. Without some accountability there might be no incentive to change the poor behavior. The same is true when providing free food. When someone fails to make healthy decisions, we all suffer because we are interdependent. We need a system that incentivizes self-sufficiency, personal responsibility, and accountability.

Summary

The RFK Jr. strategy is attempting to reverse the dependency pattern. HHS and MAHA are intending to provide accurate data to help each of us make better decisions for ourselves, for our children and for our families.

Embracing the mindset of interdependence, self-sufficiency and personal responsibility will reduce costs through prevention not treatment.

The most effective strategy is to improve the overall system and then individually become self-sufficient, make responsible decisions and trust in God to help us manage our own health and wellness.
