Gas Prices and Suicide Numbers Climb Under Obama

To be fair, suicide rates are also up because states have had to slash funding for mental health programs. Not that gas prices and a bad economy don't play a part. Stress absolutly contributes to suicide rates. But another factor is the increasing segment of our society who are parents to a troubled child, but refuse to take responsibility for it. When the gov't can't fill the gap, and parents don't wanna take on the task, the child becomes a man with mental issues and no one helping him. It's the parents job #1, gov'ts #2.

What states have slashed funds for mental health programs? You make it sound as if it's a national crisis...

Link?

Oh gosh, almost all of them. My home state currently, SC, has slashed MH funding massively. Most states have. I'll google it for a link, but it's fairly accepted as a budget fact.
 
My X bro-in law killed himself under GW Moron.
He was a true murkin.
Re-financed his house for twice it's real value, got him summa them thar granite counter tops, 2 new SUV's, a big screen, marble floor in the living room, new garage and then got the news his employer was closing up and leaving murkastan..
He hung himself ( and probably put the rope on his Visa card).
He was warned. I was packing my bags about the same time it happened.
 
Found this -

States cutting the most of mental health budgets: Kentucky (47.5%), Alaska (35.0%), South Carolina (22.7%) and Arizona (22.7%).

But 18 states increased mental health spending, the report notes. Adding the most was Oregon, with a 23.2% increase ($71 million from 2009-2011). Others ranged from 20.9% in North Carolina and 11.2% in Idaho to 0.2% in Florida.

This is when I was packing my bags and painting " for sale" signs.
Yeah. B00B was the catalyst of what you see today.
Idiots.
 
Obama, like Bush, doesn't control Gas prices.

Bush did control gas prices. Remember when he tapped into the reserves and they went down?

When's Obama going to address it, start drilling, cease dithering...
