we used to have a society where there was a place for people who couldn't cope and village life was simpler too

I just found out that an old friend who went homeless died recently at 41. I knew him when he was about 23. Great welder. Tried to sleep with me a few times which was kinda flattering, he was a gentleman about it. RIP Benny.
