"Many people say I want to kill myself because I do this."

"People can say what they want. I do it because I want to be cured."

Electric therapy, via lying on railroad tracks, in Indonesia, where "many practice a form of Islam that is mixed with superstition and traditional beliefs, including voodoo-like treatments to ward off spells and illnesses." So... it's not New Age. It's Old Age.

There's a lot of mixed messages in there.

Which mostly seems to all suggest that national health care doesn't actually help poor people.

It's free for everyone! But you have to pay to go see a doctor. Everyone is covered! But there's such significant hassle and non-responsive care people would rather sit on tracks than sit in a waiting room.

National health care that results in an emphasis on light rail? Obama's strategy is starting to make more sense...

With 11,000 volts on the overhead wire, I wonder what levels are induced in the grounded rails? It's nasty if you touch it [GRAPHIC]

Wow, touching the third rail is almost as crazy as cutting Social Security. That guy's suicidal!

(Ha ha, I finally get to invert the trope!)
