DaemonFC[m]The Scientologists claim as part of "psychiatric abuse" that a man speaking Hungarian was diagnosed with schizophrenia and put into a state hospital back in the 70s.Jan 10 00:34
DaemonFC[m]But I can't find a source for this claimJan 10 00:34
DaemonFC[m]State governments don't want to budget for long term psychiatric hospitals anymore. At least Indiana still has one up in Richmond but it takes worse care of it than most of the state prisons.Jan 10 00:36
DaemonFC[m]Luckily for most people, it's almost impossible to end up in there no matter how screwed up you are because there's pressure from the state on psychiatrists at the local level to avoid sending "clients" there.Jan 10 00:37
DaemonFC[m]Because of the aforementioned Republican budgets.Jan 10 00:37
DaemonFC[m]I read a seriously vague news article today. Apparently, Indiana got some one off tax revenue they weren't expecting and the Democrats said "Hey Republicans! Let's put it in those schools you left to fall over on top of the students!", then the Republicans said, "We have a better idea! Why don't we not give them $150 million in cash and borrow $270 million from Wall Street on it! That will really save money in theJan 10 00:40
DaemonFC[m]long run won't it? By the way, there's only three of you guys left so you can't turn this over for a fiscal analysis!".Jan 10 00:40
DaemonFC[m]I'm lost on how the Republicans could save on long term borrowing costs by giving schools $270 million in money that was borrowed with interest instead of $150 million in cash. But I did go to school in Indiana, so...Jan 10 00:41
DaemonFC[m]The Republicans followed up with, "We're not going to worry about teacher raises until our next two year state budget.". It hasn't gotten to West Virginia crisis levels because of them yet, where all of the teachers walked out and the Republicans had to draft an emergency budget bill with raises for the first time in over a decade, but I have a feeling it will. Republicans are the same everywhere.Jan 10 00:42
DaemonFC[m]The Republicans in Indiana spent a billion dollars promising private prison companies that there would be more crime, and then redefined crime to make sure of it, but they can't find any money for teacher raises and school construction.Jan 10 00:44
