The historical legacy of the American government, especially of the “Representatives” in the Legislative Branch, will be a dark one. 

According to a new report from the Centers for Diseases and Prevention, America has experienced a four percent increase in suicides from 2020 to 2021. According to the Gateway Pundit, this is the sharpest yearly increase in 20 years. 

In 2020, suicide was the 12th leading cause of death in America. It’s now number 11, though among those aged 10 through 34 it’s the second leading cause of death. This is a much bigger epidemic than COVID-19 ever was – and it’s driven largely by the actions and inactions of government. 

The report cites drivers of the increase that include pandemic-related isolation, job loss, financial instability, lockdowns, illness and grief. In other words, this is the result of your policies and, more importantly, your inaction to stop the destruction of America. Your inaction to stop the isolation and abusive government policies. 

The report also provides the alarming data point that suicide among teen girls is on the rise. 

The Pundit writes, “Of all demographics examined by the CDC, suicide rates are typically lowest among females aged 10 to 14. Yet, young girls saw the largest percentage increase in over two decades starting at 0.6 deaths per 100,000 people in 2001 and rising to 2.3 per that many in 2021, the CDC reports.”

The only answer to mental health issues that we get from the political and medical establishments is Big Pharma. More medications, patients for life. Yet, the rising rate of suicides in the US coincides with increasing prescription rates of mental health “medications.” Listed side effects of all psychotropic mental health medications include suicidal and homicidal ideations.

DEMAND FOR REMEDY: Remove barriers to real mental health treatment. Audit all federal mental health expenditures. Investigate Big Pharma’s knowledge of and complicity in the increasing suicide rate of Americans.

More than 24 percent of Americans are now taking prescription mental health drugs. And we are experiencing a national mental health crisis. Correlation doesn’t equal causation, but it certainly begs examination.  

More than 48,000 Americans took their own lives in 2021. How many of them might have lived if only the government put America and Americans first? 

Remember your oath.
