The thing that gets me about all this BS is this:
Polls show the US is:
21 percent liberal
40 percent conservative
35 percent moderate
linkySo this "study", in an offhand way, says that approx 40 percent of the US is mentally ill? That just don't make sense to me.
Let me give the dummies a little primer here:
1. How many libs are either on brain meds or have been in therapy? Since DU is a liberal bastion let us use them as a representative of the libs. To be honest I do not know how many are on meds or have been therapy but a good indication is a forum dedicated entirely to mental health issues. Now let us look at CC or CU as a comparison. Is there a mental health forum?
Draw your own conclusion, dummies.
Now let us look at just the raw numbers... or percentages as it were. According to this report:
"The current prevalence estimate is that about 20 percent of the U.S. population are affected by mental disorders during a given year."
linky from surgeon generalHmmm... I ain't the smartest guy in the world, certainly not as smart as the mostest smartest people on the internet... but I happen to see a link between the percentage of libs in the country and the percentage of people suffering from mental illness the country. Wow! Know what dummies? They happen to be the same!!!!
Draw your own conclusions dummies...when you ain't in therapy that is. I just provided the facts. Facts are such pesky things.
