Warmongers are dangerous to themselves and others

Communication should be a required subject in grade schools, the history of language styles, and the history of wars. We need to eliminate war completely because we cannot afford the consequences; we never could; Hiroshima, Nagasaki and Pearl Harbour and the horrible underwater testing and underground testing events are self destructive because the impact on the environment is so devastating. Farmers of any culture know immediately the effects of war not just the disruption but the poor contaminated soil, the contaminated water, and the air that doesn't return to normal if ever.

Kickbacks and human rights abuses in old people's/disabled people's homes

Vulnerable people need defenders of their rights. It is not unusual for families to become burdened with the extra stress and work involved in caring for an older person or handicapped person so since the creation of institutions, people have been dumped with idealistic hopes on the part of their families into classically run institutions. Working families in particular have found the demands of modern upwardly mobile lifestyles require someone to deal with breakdown of idealism through incarceration in homes for the mentally handicapped/(old term mentally retarded), homes for the aged/(old term: for the elderly), transition houses for those caught in addiction or youth rejected for rebellion.

DISS ME NOT In Canada

This blog is dedicated to the clients from Dawson Court lodge that I met while working as a nurse's aide during the late 1960s and early 1970s. Anne Geddes, George Maycock, Miss Herd, little Doris, and Miss Friday were some of the vibrant characters that spent the end of their lives as disabled citizens living in Thunder Bay, Ontario.

I was not a mental health client then but shortly after I was diagnosed with narcolepsy and given amphetamines.
