Are you afraid? We should be. Accusations of mental health problems amongst dissenters is the closing act of radicle socialism takeover.

So this is to be the next assault. If you espouse Christianity, you will be declared “crazy” .. and put in a funny farm .. for your own safety.

The only solution to that is to lead all the other patients to receive Christ as their Savior and then they can all walk out of the “funny farm” .. completely cured.

Works for me.

To: Mr. K

Several years ago the American Psychological Association lobbied to have mental health and alcoholism treated as any other illness, rather than having their own limitations.

The primary push behind this was because most plans included $25,000 lifetime hospital benefits but just a few thousand dollars in outpatient psychotherapy benefits. Lots of psychiatrists were hospitalizing every patient they could get their hands on, exhausting the $25,000 benefits in ten days in one hospital stay and then discharging the patient when the money was exhausted. There was no money for outpatient psychotherapy, which generally is done by psychologists. Psychiatrists were getting very rich, psychiatric hospitals were on every corner and psychologists were being cut out.

Now we have states approving marijuana use for the masses, then they come along and approve funding for treatment. It’s all just a vicious, never ending, expensive circle.

There is nothing Clinton could add to any funding for mental health that isn’t already in place, except to make insurance carriers pay it at 100% with no deductible or co-insurance.

That’s exactly what’s up. All that do not believe in the liberal religion will be deemed mentally ill. Their rights taken away and re-education imposed. Children sent to foster care because of their parents “mental state”.

Exactly right!

There are probably many here who don't know how the soviets used claims of mental illness to wipe out opposition." From Wiki...

"The "anti-Soviet" political behavior of some individuals — being outspoken in their opposition to the authorities, demonstrating for reform, and writing critical books — were defined simultaneously as criminal acts, symptoms of mental illness (e.g., "delusion of reformism"), and susceptible to a ready-made diagnosis (e.g., "sluggish schizophrenia"). Within the boundaries of the diagnostic category, the symptoms of pessimism, poor social adaptation and conflict with authorities were themselves sufficient for a formal diagnosis of "sluggish schizophrenia."

If you resist, if you even think of resisting, you are shipped off to the gulags.

This is very frightening. Why in the world did she bring this up in August 2016? It hasn't been spoken of once in the entire campaign, to my knowledge. Is she going to dare to link this to her assault on 2A?
