you've got smartwatches that will help you monitor your heart rate etc, you've got super fancy shoes and super duper fancy jogging clothes, and then you have a thousand phone apps that will let you keep track of your workouts and share it with others (don't mind the paid plan and occasional ads)
I understand where you are coming from with this, but this is just the consumables that they buy and get something for - yes, a massive amount of money - but when yo start to look at what the pharmaceuticals and associated costs of healthcare are, it is enormous and, the people are getting "nothing" for it other than being treated for illness - I am not sure if I am explaining that well, but I hope you understand. The consumables are actually "something" (often useless), but but the money generated from illness is money that largely doesn't need to be spent.
Aaaaaaand of course you can't perform a single freaking workout without telling the entire world that you just did! Share it to Facebook, Instagram, TikTok or whathever else is hot at this point in time. Don't mind the algorithms.
THis is for all sides. Social media is largely a scourge and drives all kinds of poor behavior.
I'd say that nowadays it is possible to generate income on virtually everything.
Yes it is. but when it comes to the poor and sickly, they largely can't generate income , they can only consume.
The world we have created does not incentivize health, it encourages degradation.
