If that doesn't do the trick, try much liquor. If both fail, then try a doctor. But maybe giove one or both methods a second chance before risking a visit to the doctor. Feel better soon!

In that I would agree with Dave. But worry about finances puts a strain on families, so I would rather see more federal money expended on inceasing employment. In addition, worries about health care and costs puts enormous strain on families, so I would to say that putting this money into health care -- including mental health care--would have a better return than paying people to say that marriage is a good thing, or providing more traditional marriage counseling. In particular since most counties and states do provide marriage counseling, as do churches and other organizations. Paying a journalist to write good things about any government plan or proposal, as journalistic content, is never a good use of money, no matter what party is involved.
