		<description><![CDATA[I&#039;m just a bit sensitive about the easy willingness to call psychiatrists and psychologists not good at rating people for danger, when they&#039;ve been doing that in America since long before 1975, the year when the O&#039;Connor v. Donaldson case made it a duty for them to do so in cases involving involuntary commitment. If they weren&#039;t good at it in 1975, they&#039;ve had two generations to develop the necessary skills.  
 
I (and undoubtedly you as well) have a fairly well-developed sense of when a person constitutes a real danger, and despite our non-professional sense of what makes a person dangerous, both of us have probably made that sense work effectively to avoid trouble in our travels. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;Being erroneously rated as dangerous is far less risky that overprescribing pain medication. Pain medication has the potential to kill the patient, or make him an addict. &quot; 
 
I wasn&#039;t comparing, just arguing that in the case of pain medication it should be mostly up to the patient with professional supervision. Patient will is more controversial for mental health than it is for pain patients. At least I say it should be. Managing risks from pain meds is far easier than managing the risks of mishandling people with problems in the brain or mind. 
 
I don&#039;t have any direct experiences with mental health patients and I can&#039;t claim to offer any solutions or even suggestions. I&#039;ll only say that when families once felt more responsible for each other, things seemed easier to control in terms of implications for society at large. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;Political Correctness&quot; is the cancer  that attacks its cure &quot;Common Sense&quot;. Example... It supports the logic that in order for D.C.to balance its checkbook it must spend more than it earns . The sad part is too many of the voters in the 2012 election bought into this Liberal Insanity. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;Can anyone explain why, when someone dies, most of what he has saved up over a lifetime should be turned over to politicians, rather than to his heirs?&quot; Using the law the politicians proclaim themselves to be heirs. The founding fathers wanted to limit the powers of the President but they should have also limited the power of the Congress to pass laws. Increasingly laws have nothing to do with justice or fairness. They have become the primary means to oppress and torment the citizens who least need them. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;Mr. Sowell, how come you distrust the judgment calls of psychiatrists/psychologists, but you credit the guesses as to pain medication by non-psychiatrists?&quot; 
 
The only objective measure of pain is physical stress response. Analysing emotional response to measure pain medicines is a bad idea. I don&#039;t mind their input in theory, but they should never have much coercive or decision making influence. 
 
Bloomberg is insane. 
 
&quot;Why is judging how much pain medication to prescribe any more trustworthy than judging whether or not a disturbed person is dangerous?&quot; 
 
Quantities of pain medicines and doses rarely have any impact on anyone other than the patient. It&#039;s not that pain meds are more &quot;trustworthy&quot; in terms of predicting precise results, but the cost of errors is lower and much more easily managed if one uses standard guidelines. ]]></description>

Marco Rubio, March 2009: 
 
&#8220;I am strongly against amnesty. The most important thing we need to do is enforce our existing laws. We have existing immigration laws that are not being adequately enforced. Nothing will make it harder to enforce the existing laws, if you reward people who broke them. It demoralizes people who are going through the legal process, its a very clear signal of why go through the legal process, if you can accomplish the same thing if you go through the illegal process. And number two, if demoralizes the people enforcing the laws. I am not, and I will never support any effort to grant blanket legalization/amnesty to folks who have entered, stayed in this country illegally.&#8221;

Marco Rubio, 2013: 
 
Sen. Marco Rubio&#8217;s immigration plan earned a measure of praise from the White House. And why not? It looks a lot like a White House plan from 2011.

		<description><![CDATA[Mr. Sowell, how come you distrust the judgment calls of psychiatrists/psychologists, but you credit the guesses as to pain medication by non-psychiatrists? 
 
Why is judging how much pain medication to prescribe any more trustworthy than judging whether or not a disturbed person is dangerous?  It&#039;s not like shrinks aren&#039;t doing that evaluation as to danger or not even as I write this.  They&#039;ve been doing it for a long time. ]]></description>
