Concern: White Male Suicide Increase

Let's look at the numbers:

Middle-aged white people now account for a third of all suicides in the U.S., a new government report shows.
Suicide is the nation's 10th leading cause of death, and the overall rate rose 24 percent in 15 years, according to the report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Suicides have long been most common among white people — particularly older white males. But most striking in the new report is the growth in whites ages 45 to 64.
Hmmmm...  so they are checking out instead of facing the economic policies of the USA.  Not word on the other races, perhaps it is of little interest to Fox News.  It is of interest to those who post on such article, for they are preoccupied with denigrating people of African-ancestry.

Sounds like a problem of white entitlement, and maybe white privilege is nonsense.

At any rate, who has not considered suicide in his life?  Everyone does, but few go through with it.  It takes quite a bit to do so/  Is they problem they false dilemma?  Have they considered channeling their suffering (passion - from the Greek: to suffer) into creativity, and making the pain pay?

It's a thought.  Don't ice yourself and weird out your relations, start a business.

Feel free to forward this by email to three of your friends.
