Please, please, please be mentally ill


Saw this story on http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/ about the private hospital chain, the Priory Group. It was headlined Priory Warns Of 'Recession-Depression' Escalation. Using a nice bit of alliteration, the Group have warned it's going to get really gloomy in these credit crunch times.

I think the story should be reworded: Priory Group desperately hopes people will get mentally ill so the hospitals can fill their beds, and bleed the health policies dry. So despite the doom and gloom, there are innovative ways to beat the credit crunch.

Be depressed today, help the Priory Group fill a bed, and help the Group come through the credit crunch. They're counting on you, and you, and you, and you, and you...
