Bush’s administration keeps sending handouts to the pharmaceutical companies. Previously it was the card scam of the discount drug that got these pharmaceutical companies profits rising sky high, with non-existent discounts. Then came the order of a drug reserve for anti-terror. Billions of government money was spent on expensive drugs that could counter the effect of biological weapons. And now comes the latest announcement form the government office regarding mental heath check ups, that makes it mandatory for all US citizens to get a heath screening done.

Now one may wonder how this is a handout to the drug companies. Well the reason is simple once somebody goes for a mental check-up, there a high chance of the person getting detected with a case of fictitious diseases, something like the ADHD. The person would obviously be prescribed with heavy doses of medicines that could help them deal with the condition as understood. The public would in turn begin to make expensive purchases, which would increase the profits of the pharmaceutical companies. Thus it would actually not be wrong to state that that this announcement comes as a severe way of invading people’s personal privacy, and not to forget a way of doping them to heavy spending.

This is made worse by the fact that the antidepressant drugs, that are usually given in huge quantities, have been proven to be causing about 400% increased risk in suicidal tendencies. It also provokes one to get more violent. The way they turn the brain chemistry around is so dangerous that instead of prescribing it throughout US, the government should try to get them banned.

In fact, nobody requires drugs for dealing with the mental problems. What is preferable is a good nutrition choice, including, lots of Vitamin D and natural sunlight that helps is dealing with mental instability. Lots of physical exercise like swimming, jogging, etc, and consumption of the right nutritional supplements, with a balanced diet including herbs that are brain boosting, like whole organic foods and super foods should be what one sets their eyes on, for dealing with brain health problems.

This is the ideal way of solving dementia, depression and schizophrenia besides other mental problems. Ad for problems of ADHD, they can be eliminated almost overnight by taking the patients especially the children off such foods that contain sugars, refined carbohydrates, etc, and putting on a diet of selected nutritional supplements, whole and organic foods. After all, the problems that are caused initially are not owing to the lack of drugs, but only the lack of activity, sunlight, nutrition, etc. For mental well being the right lifestyle is more important than the drugs.

However, what really matters is that enhancing the heath was never really the part of Bush’s plan. Generating billions of dollars keeping the population in a zombie state, so as to support the Iraq military actions was the major goal, when avoiding the medications got regarded as a part of federal crime.
