Suicide is not a disease, but rather a somewhat particular form of Darwinian natural selection. Thus it is not within Center of Disease Control and Prevention competence (or congressional competence, for that matter). Why not try (as an exercise) to prevent the change of seasons, or even stop a minor volcano St. Helens?

Excellent post. I feel sorry for this guy, but you're right. It sounds like this congressman is trying to make a memorial for his son with other people's money.
