Somalis in America,. What could go wrong?
The World Health Organization estimates that 1 in 3 Somalis
are mentally ill due to their country’s constant violence
and abuse of the Khat narcotic. Somali science however
came up with a surefire cure for the crazies. Lock the
patient up in a room with a hyena and wait for the ugly beast to
see the demons causing the madness and drive them out.
Somali medicine, like American medicine, however suffers
from rising health care costs. A session with a trained
psychiatric hyena costs 560 dollars in a country where
the average national salary is 190 bucks putting a
Mogadishu trained hyena on par with a Harvard trained
psychiatrist.
Somalis who can't afford to blow a three month salary
to spend time on the couch with a hyena have a more
practical solution. They tie the affected person to a tree
and leave. The hyenas usually find the patient sooner or later
and snack on him pro bono, while his kin head off to the
welfare office in Lewiston, Maine.
