Preach. But genuinely I think that the reason they defund all that shit it's because they want people to buy it from them instead, ignoring the fact that those who most need help often lack the means to pay for private alternatives.

Proper funding of nental health would drastically reduce the numbers of school shootings in the USA.

But we won't do that, because why spend money when you can earn money instead?

Capitalism is the bane of a just democratic society where we pool resources to help each other out so that everybody gets a fair chance and a good life.

    I worked for a mental health system for seven years. The cause of the decline in the mental health system can be traced directly back to Reagan. They want to pray the demons away but most of all they don't want their victims to realize who is really to blame for their pain.
