Veterans for Common Sense and Veterans United for Truth Inc., brought the matter forward, representing their members and a class of all veterans similarly situated.

Doctor Suicides Vs. Military Suicides: There is a Connection

Studies in Denmark indicated that doctors had the highest suicide rates of 20 professions. I’ll bet the U.S. has about the same.

(MOLALLA, Ore.) - Depressed doctor The Oregonian had an article about the former on January 18, 2011. This is rather standard history within this profession.

These suicides et cetera are just the tip of the iceberg.

If the networks and huge daily newspapers paid attention to what was really going on around them, they would be in for quite a shock. Americans are increasingly buying food that falls into the 'mad scientist' category; created in laboratories by essentially fooling nature.
