A short dialogue (YouTube conversation) discussing how the medical-industrial complex has misaligned incentives—healthcare systems and businesses often profit from sickness rather than cure. Speakers propose changing the business model to profit when people are healthy, possibly via direct-to-consumer approaches, and highlight incentive misalignment as a core obstacle.

Today medical industrial complex everyone makes money when you are sick. And our concept was what if we can create something where you actually as a business make money when people are healthy because everyone in the medical industrial complex wants you to stay sick but you don't want to be sick. And what if we can go direct to consumer that is the pain point. They have because they are sick and tired of taking a medicine for rest of their life because they have diabetes or because they have heart disease or because they have depression and these diseases are constant diseases that rest of your life you'll be taking a drug and we say what if we can actually stop that?
I remember reading a quote until we can make more money from curing cancer than treating and maintaining cancerous society there will never be a cure for cancer.
And that is fundamentally true that I'm not suggesting that people are evil but the incentives are.
