�There comes a time in
any business when throwing money at a failing project in the faint
hope that some return will be realized, is just plain bad business.
In the case of psychiatry, however, it seems we have been literally
throwing money away. There are no cures�just more disorders created,
more demands for funding and more fraud. But the true cost is
not dollars; it is people�s lives.�
