Re: Very important!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Guest guest]

If the white house is for it, then I am not. If

psychiatry is for it, then I am not.

More money to pay mental health bills are just what

the APA wants.

Just maybe they won't be so quick to lock you up, when

there is no one to pay the bill.

Sorry Cassandra.

john, I think you misunderstand. If this bill passes, S 1955 will be a big

blow to psychiatry and the pharmaceutical industry on a national level.

Big pharma does NOT want this bill to pass! Voting " NO " is how pharma

wants you to vote! Click here to see how the psychiatric industry is

responding:

http://pn.psychiatryonline.org/cgi/content/short/41/7/2

The above article states: " APA sent members an alert asking them

to contact their two U.S. senators and to urge them to vote

against the bill... "

This bill will override all of the state mental health parity laws!! These

are laws that force insurance companies to provide coverage for mental

illness equal to the coverage forphysical illness. The resulthas been

morepeople being harmed by psychiatry's barbaric solutions.

WE DO NOT WANT MENTAL HEALTH PARITY!!! SO VOTE " YES " !!!

john, I think you misunderstand. If this bill passes, S 1955 will be a big

blow to psychiatry and the pharmaceutical industry on a national level.

Big pharma does NOT want this bill to pass! Voting " NO " is how pharma

wants you to vote! Click here to see how the psychiatric industry is

responding:

http://pn.psychiatryonline.org/cgi/content/short/41/7/2

The above article states: " APA sent members an alert asking them

to contact their two U.S. senators and to urge them to vote

against the bill... "

This bill will override all of the state mental health parity laws!! These

are laws that force insurance companies to provide coverage for mental

illness equal to the coverage forphysical illness. The resulthas been

morepeople being harmed by psychiatry's barbaric solutions.

WE DO NOT WANT MENTAL HEALTH PARITY!!! SO VOTE " YES " !!!

On 19 Apr 2006 at 21:21, john jbc999 wrote:

If the white house is for it, then I am not. If

psychiatry is for it, then I am not.

More money to pay mental health bills are just what

the APA wants.

Just maybe they won't be so quick to lock you up, when

there is no one to pay the bill.

Sorry Cassandra.

Thank god medicare a and b is limited

on this also .

What a danger for retirees , to be able to

spend years in lock up on medicare .

What a boon to psychiatry to gouge the

system more than it is already.

Im sure its being set up by the lobby right now

to finally go through , with fearless leader

holding its hand .

Another insult to the us public .

What a worm, pharmpsych is .

He who controls the pharmpsych controls the world .

Except for a few victims who refuse to

be poisoned .

I may leave the country if this occurs .

While taking the meds I quit medicare because of

the psych limits, bitched about it , and went back to VA mal

practice medical.

It nearly cost me my life .

These psychs are insane about it .

Once given the power to overrule law

Psych wants everything .

If the real big depression hits ,

that makes the great depression look tame compared ,

psychiary will loose all, and be forced to work

as medical dox for a dime a day .

I dont see any other way than this to clean this

scorge of corruption .

Imagine a gang of cut throat sykes walking

down the street looking like a brutaleen party

for its first hand victims .

Then dragging them into the box themselves

cause they dont have the money to hire goons .

What an image of sissies, nincompoops

ninnies and mommies boys they are .

Then the female psychs reverting to caveman

days , like hookers waiting for victims .

Come over here abnormal, look what black jack

missie psych has for you .

thawak, blam , hammer technique ,

no drugs for you patient .

now get in that box or else .

Backward flat earth _______.

Hey its good for a laugh now,

but look what could occur.
