Fill out questionnaire, be indicated positive for depression, goes to government database, screens for gun possession, sends SWAT to remove guns, die while defending from no-knock raid in the middle of the night because you truly didn’t know it was the police....

There was a “person of interest” episode that mirrored this.

Then they contact the local police and have your guns confiscated.

Sure, exactly what a person wants, a green card holder and all his buddies knowing all about a PHQ score.

Vidushi Tekriwal, Indian, Pakastani, Bangladesh? Where?

Bet you a C note he was not born here.

And I suppose if you google “lottery winner,” the IRS will call on you. Google is now an arm of the state.

I had much the same thought. Fill out the questionnaire and it will go everywhere that can be used against the citizen. There will be no confidentiality.

Given this whole business of government-sponsored “electronic medical records,” You are a fool to discuss any mental health issues with your doctor. My not so often visits to my doctor are 50/50 being examined and him typing $hit into my medical record, which is like a “medical records roach motel.” That is “medical conditions” go on, but none that are resolved are ever removed or listed as resolved. My bet is that at some point, when you reach a certain age and have a certain number of medical problems, Medicare will say, “that’s it, your too sick, time to die, you’re on your own from this point forward unless we can offer you some suicide drugs!”

But I was trying to figure out the errors made by the Federal Reserve in the 1930s.

uh oh, all the psychology lovers who want to fight hopelessness are in big doodoo. Not me, I use DuckDuckGo. I’m paranoid, not depressed.

Maranatha!

That’s what I was thinking. I would not advise checking from your own computer, your home or workplace, or even from a library computer that you just used to check email/FakeBook/Whatever. Freedom’s enemies will use any excuse they can create to disarm decent Americans.

You don’t need Google for depression. You need sunshine or Vitamin D (D3) supplements.

Yep. Fill out the questionnaire and the next day the dudes in the white suits will knock on your door and put the straight jacket on you.
