It's not hard to restructure it at all.

1. Ban overworking. Make it a federal offense. Actually jail CEOs if their employees work >50 hours a week

2. These exercise tracking apps should pay people for the exercise they do. The money will come from health insurance. They pay $1 per mile you run or hike, they save $10 on your future hospitalization.

3. City sponsored exercise events and sports competitions open to everyone, not just athletes. Give tax deductions to those who participate and demonstrate attendance.

The solution is right here, above. Whether the politicians choose to listen, is not something I can influence. But I have given the solution.

Your health insurance or employer may already offer a similar program. Mine does. I get up to $500 added to my HSA every year if I hit step count goals on their app.

That said, looking around my office, I don't think it's very effective. It's hard to get people to exercise and a few hundred bucks doesn't change that.
