If ever there was a prime example of the federal government creating a problem and then offering a solution that will never work, besides the bailouts of course, it’s the newest: “A Guide to Getting Through Tough Economic Times,” set up by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration.

The federal government, which includes a Congress that simply no longer represents the people and appears bent on making us all crazy with their latest policies, wants us to know that they will be there for us when we all go insane.

Wanting all of us to stay hopeful and striving for better attitudes whilst they bankrupt the country, sentencing the next five generations to economic slavery and tyranny, they are offering tips on how to stay mentally healthy, and how to recognize as possible mental health problems, on their new website.

After elaborating a bit on the effects stress can have on a person’s health and the warning signs — like drinking, overuse of medications, anxiety and crying (already there), they then go on to give ways to manage the stress. Unfortunately, alleviating the economic situation via limited government isn’t one of them.

Of course, they want you to know that you can seek help from a number of federal and state agencies, or a local spiritual leader if need be. The proletariat is reminded that “strengthening connections with family and friends” will be essential (for sheer survival), and developing “new employment skills” is bound to make anyone feel better, even though there are no jobs to be had.

The parting suggestion? “Work together to help all members of the community build their resiliency and successfully return to healthy and productive lives.” Because having all hands on deck and serving the state is going to be a must. How else could they keep the regime going?

Oh, and as an aside to the news media: Please don’t glorify or report in detail any suicides that might be attributed to the economy. They wouldn’t want the general public to know just how many people have been driven to it, and besides there might be copycat suicides credited to the economic disaster that would mess up the real numbers.

Just another day of your fed-gov at work.

They are winning their game of getting us to give up The Federal Gov is so out of control, they are acheiving their goal of getting the general public to totally give up on the Government. Then they can convert to some form a parlamentary government and move to complete NWO government. No more "for the people and by the people". God bless JBS, for continuing to promote liberty, truth, freedom and faith.
