How Has Neurosis Become an Economic Category?

The History
“Not century events make me irritated, but the small things get on my nerves”.
Victoria, the Queen of Great Britain
“Any good literature creature of all times is the result of someone`s neurosis”.
Liam Styron
“Money is the best calmative”.
Leornard Luis Levinson

The Present
And…neurosis as economic category, the indicator of consumer market and the multiplier of inflation. It is great! I already like it – neurosis – the multiplier of inflation! Neurosis has become a serious part of our life. We have become so nervous that every small thing gets on our nerves. But it is not surprising as it turns out the Queen Victoria was getting irritated by small things. For example, every thing like constant traffic-jams, rising costs of living, political tensions and everything in general – globalization, warming climate, loss of our football team, fundamentalists is getting on our nerves and that`s why medicine has become an indivisible part of our lives. If we enumerate advertisements on TV and more over, what is spoken (which preparation is good for which disease) we see that there is almost no disease which is not completely and successfully cured and as a result everybody would have been recovered and nobody would need any kind of treatment. But everything is neurosis fault and it is incurable. Why??? Because its cure is money! Oh, and it is not easily obtainable, it is tend to be a chronic deficit. After energy and oil import the medicine import is on the fifth position by amount and is followed by wheat import amount in Georgia. In 2007 the total import of medicine was 105.0$ that is to say average 25.0$ per capita, and if we add the local production we see that our average consumption of medicine is 100 Gel per capita per year. When there is imported 89 million $ of wheat, according to the same calculations we get 22 $ per capita and totally 75 Gel per capita.
It is quite a worrying and pondering figure, because according to the recent statistical data the number of ill people has increased, everything is the fault of neurosis in other case what does this disease have to do in blessed Georgia?! The nature is fantastic – air, water, food, drinks, humor, songs, careless feast and etc. The main thing is lack of money and on its generated basis regenerated atius nervius brams sins.
Is it not comprehensible for you? For me either and because of it do we have the regeneration of neurosis. Do you understand now? Why? Oh, this is a fact, everything we have is Western: laws, taxes, words, manners, moans (Oh, my god!) and in general everything – prices of electricity, water and any other prices and taxes are Western, neurosis and incomes are local. That’s why diseases are increasing together with medicine expenditures. The last economic researches have shown that medicine expenditures are in serious opposition with the coalition of electricity and gas prices, however, recently prices of food are going to seek shelter in market trade union and to fight by combined forces for the superiority of consumer basket. This is the new phenomena in the prolonged history of consumer basket research. It is said about: That is what we have lived without – neurosis as an economic category and the new methodic of its research. Thus, I can offer you the Dostoevski`s old advise – when you are tortured by neurotic sleeplessness don`t get angry, these are devils! Pray, cross yourself and say the pray of St. Fiodor Dovstoevski. It is better, because neurosis is very expensive and its cure is money! Buying money is impossible you must earn it! And if you can`t earn money, like Victoria –you let these small things get on your nerves and take medicine again, and so on endlessly until money for medicine or soul for life expires.
Perhaps it is the new characteristic of the world economy too and especially in the countries of economic transitions, such as Georgia, the biggest part of population income is spent on medicine and mainly for treatment of neurosis and diseases related to it.
In this way a harmless and invisible neurosis has become an economic category and now the Institute of Neuropathology already works with economic-medicine profile, certainly! It has a dual initial. You want to know the meaning of dual? I`ll tell you later. By the way, there is a cheaper way out too: Do not care!
