economics - in a rational free market, people wont pay for what is not of value to them.
In the US, companies are not required to provide health insurance, but do so to attract and retain employees. In most states they are not required to provide mental health benefits.
Nonetheless most do - despite the fact that these benefits are costly. Presumably they do so since the absence of mental health benefits would impair their ability to attract/retain employees. Ergo, employees/job seekers are assigning value to such benefits in their labor market decisions.
And since employees/job seekers are rational in their labor market behavior, it follows that mental health care IS of value. QED.
in fact i beleive it also follows that the value of mental health care will equal or exceed the after tax cost to employers to provide it - though i cant do the proof off the top of my head."A person cannot approach the divine by reaching beyond the human.

Dude, quoting yourself is soooo uncool. That's the kind of thing MrFun does.Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...Comment

OK now, repeat after me: I am NOT uncool. I have done some uncool things. They were understandable in context. I will do better in the future. I will probably still make some uncool posts, but thats OK. Its not that important anyway.
