  1. We have a historically low 4% unemployment, employers hosting open job fairs & walk-in interviews, they’re practically begging people to work. So when I hear the likes of Cori & Teshart telling people to sit on their can instead of taking a McJob that might pay slightly less than some arbitrary $15/hr, what’s really behind the supposed epidemic of “mental health issues” appears to be cognitive dissonance.

  2. Acute mental health issues in the black community.

    They (black community) need money given them, need assistance handed to them, need MORE help than everyone else.

    This entire thing sounds racist to me.
