The family suicide

I woke up to hear about the guy that lost his job at Kaiser Permanente who led his wife to commit suicide and killed his five kids. I was not in a happy place. There is help out there, and if for someone there isn't that isn't a reason to commit suicide, that is a reason to get politically active and change what is wrong.

I have written elsewhere about how people here in the States don't get together and help each other enough on a personal level, I mean help their friends, and do peaceful political actions to change what constitute barriers to self help in our country.

This guy was an extreme case in point.

Economic downturns no matter how severe are TEMPORARY! Family however is forever and suicide is FOREVER!

Which brings me to another thing. . . Some Republican or other had a problem with the fact that part of the Stimulus Package includes money for contraception...

I do not have a problem with that, no one should be making babies when they are that broke.... It's a LOGICAL inclusion.

I've seen what happens when a woman gets pregnant during a downturn, it's not pretty what happens to her marriage, and it's not pretty what goes on for the rest of her family. Whoever that guy was needs to grow up before saying such ignorant things!
