...no one is addressing the issue of medications. This guy, by the most recent reports was on medications for depression.
Depression.
Right.
My parents survived THE GREAT DEPRESSION. There's an entire generation out there now who have within their range a startling % who need pills to get through the day.
I doubt they'd have survived the GREAT DEPRESSION.
If the economy goes its' current way: if the mortgage bubble pops and million-dollar mansions sit gathering dust, what then. (Off topic: I want to thank the yuppies who felt the need to own these 'pig houses' and for taking a HOME...a residence...and turning the whole concept of a place to spend your life into a goddamned INVESTMENT vehicle. Damn you!!! ALL OF YOU WHO DID THAT!!!!
Frightening. THAT scares me more than guns. You can turn your back on a gun, the gun won't hurt you. A life form that is off its' meds CAN kill you.
When did the NEED for all this pill=popping have its' genesis?
If there IS another depression, and NO ONE can guarantee there won't be, all these pill-poppers are going to have an AWFUL awakening to a very nasty reality.
