Autism, the Possible Cause.....A Theory

Recent news reports in the media suggest a surge in the number of Autistic children in recent years. There may be a possible cause linking research suggesting damaged or broken chromosomes and genes.

While not limited to Liberals, the vast numbers of Autistic children appear to come from Liberal environments, both philosophically and geographically, i.e., the West Coast.

What could be the possible cause of this epidemic of Autism? I propose that heavy drug use by Hippie and Baby boomers in the 1960’s and 70’s. The “Make Love Not War” generation smoked, snorted, drank, and experimented on a pharmacopoeia of drugs in their “rebellious lifestyle” period, only to grow up to be the movers and shakers of current America. Their possible damaged genes were passed on to the “Yuppie Puppies” who, for many, also continued the drug culture today. Now this third generation of a bankrupt & shallow gene pool, has come to the surface with an epidemic of Autism.  I also think there is a direct connection between these "fractured genes" and ADHD.

One could compare the frequency of Autism among Liberals and the geographical makeup of the populations with those of conservative, religious, family valued, and perhaps East Coast dwellers. Many folks who I speak to in Liberal Oregon, still brag about their anti-war protest times, and many still use various drugs today. I know more pot smokers, for example, in my Senior 55+ building than I ever did in college in the 1960’s. Obviously I was not a drug user or a hippy, but rather a Young Republican and pro-war advocate.

I’ll bet on a relationship, but lets look at some research:

Red = Republican (Consrvatives)
Blue = Democrat (Liberals)
 
My conclusion, drug use by Liberal air-heads of the 1960's and their offspring has resulted in the epidemic of Autism and ADHD in the US.  Believe it or not!

More Random Thoughts:

Perky People – Don't you hate “Perky People”? You know, those folks who are always cheerful and happy, big smile on their face, their glass always half-full, no dark clouds on their parade, seeing the world through rose colored glasses, eternal optimism flowing out their ears! Don't you just hate that crap?

Busy Bodies - those mostly old crones who put their big noses in everybody's business, gossip 24/7, and what they don't know about someone, they make up! The old bitch in my building, “Laverne”, know how much everyone makes, what they pay for rent, what medications they are on, and what they ate for dinner two days ago!

The Death of the Middle Class – yeah, that's over, soon there will be the upper 5% and the rest. Gone are the days when a $50,000/yr job was a good job, now it's the “working poor”. Many have known for some time that the USA’s bloated economy was unsustainable, now, everyone knows. The “American Dream” is dead. Now there is the “Chinese Dream” and the “Indian Dream”.

If everyone migrated from Africa, why are there still Africans?

Sometimes you feel like a nut, because you are one.

Often, when I feel blue, I look around me at some fat, stupid, ugly people, and feel better about myself!

Who first had the thought, “Let’s make some cheese”?

Why do Christians enjoy tasty pork and Muslims and Jews don’t?

If Hitler was just a misunderstood painter, what would that make Obama?
