Psychiatric Report

 

From International Socialist Review, Vol.19 No.2, Spring 1958, p.34.
Transcription & mark-up by Einde O’Callaghan for ETOL.

 

“That ordinary well-balanced citizens are growing fewer every year is just too bad. And that around 600 million gallons of spirits are produced every year in the States (apart from heavy imports of Scotch whiskey, French brandy, and so forth), also 6 billion cans of beer, some 90 million barrels of beer, 140 million gallons of wine, 400 billion cigarettes and 60 billion tranquilizers, merely proves that the American way of life plays the devil with peoples’ nerves.”

— Robert Graves in The New Republic, Dec. 23
