The National Alliance on Mental Illness has received criticism over the years for its links to questionable individuals and policies. For instance, it has supported right-wing laws to allow court-ordered druggings of the so-called "mentally ill."
(Incidentally, the media - including the right-wing Los Angeles Times - has generally supported such laws, and has tried to imply that the only opponents are Scientologists. This is an outright deception - or in plain English, a lie.)
Now - to nobody's surprise - a Senate investigation has uncovered the fact that most of NAMI's funding comes from makers of psychiatric drugs. Since 2005, 56% of the organization's funding has come from this racket.
NAMI is a living example of ongoing corruption by Big Pharma.
