    In a country like Britain, whose citizens are, according to tradition, so buttoned up, the appointment of a Minister for Loneliness to alleviate social isolation provides an ironic counterpoint to the national caricature.http://nyer.cm/rFYfLXr

        no point in having a minister for loneliness when you have so many policies that isolate and marginalise people

        US needs a Secretary of Mental Health more than it needs a Secretary of Humility.

        Agreed! As a UK Intl student & part-time worker, I observed that people r reluctant to give feedback or politely confront one who offends them. They rather report! Tolerance or ability to overlook another’s offence is low. Due to fear /prudence, many r unable to air their opinion

        Just as Trump provides an ironic counterpoint to the national caricature of Americans? Oh, wait.

        I think it's very health conscious to have a grouping that acknowledges that loneliness does in fact lead to chronic health issues, deviance, and mental decline. We need an M of L to replace Twitter.
