I've been saying for at least 10 years they need to reopen the sanitoriums and asylums and restart the eugenics programs. We'd get rid of liberalism in a matter of weeks once all those retards are back in padded rooms hopped up on medication, getting lobotomies and being spayed/neutered.

The HaHa Hotels? Yeah, probably be a good idea for the really disturbed ones out there. Have a good friend who has a seriously disturbed brother (paranoid schizophrenic). He does ok on meds for a while, then boom, it takes a half a dozen cops to take him in to a mental health facility. Hes a big old boy too. Sooner or later hes going to get hurt or hurt someone during an "episode".

And before the fractured fairytales...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Community_Mental_Health_Act The CMHA provided grants to states for the establishment of local mental health centers, under the overview of the National Institute of Mental Health. The NIH also conducted a study involving adequacy in mental health issues. The purpose of the CMHA was to build mental health centers to provide for community-based care, as an alternative to institutionalization. At the centers, patients could be treated while working and living at home. Only half of the proposed centers were ever built; none were fully funded, and the act didn’t provide money to operate them long-term. Some states saw an opportunity to close expensive state hospitals without spending some of the money on community-based care. Deinstitutionalization accelerated after the adoption of Medicaid in 1965. During the Reagan administration, the remaining funding for the act was converted into a mental-health block grant for states. Since the CMHA was enacted, 90 percent of beds have been cut at state hospitals.[4] |

There are lots of homeless crazies out on the streets that should have ZERO interaction with society. |

Yes, we need to bring back the sanatorium system and no, they don’t have to be shit on the wall Bedlam types. We can house those too dangerous or too incompetent to be out in society in a humane manner.

It would certainly help with homeless numbers and Emergency Department overcrowding...
Not to mention it would cut down on community resources used to police these people up on the regular basis(Police, Fire, EMS, whatever). I would pay taxes to take care of people who have mental illness and cannot take care of themselves. I do not want to pay taxes for able bodied people who simply don't want to work. |

IIRC, we have thalidomide & JFK to blame for the elimination of mental-health facilities.
Someone will Shirley correct me if that is wrong. |

Our oldest son is extremely autistic/ mentally delayed/ ect/ ect. So this is an unreassuring subject regarding our sons future after my wife and I are gone. We are attempting to overfund our retirement and savings in a trust to ensure care for him.

The Pennhurst syndrome. The state facilities went to shit because of lack of funding so the better option was to turn em all out on the street. Its lose lose, this is one im fine being taxed for.

There are a handful of private long term adult care homes out there...but the number of beds in play is only a fraction of what's needed. I know of maybe 3 or 4 offhand (with maybe 6-10 beds apiece), in my AO with a commensurate populace of probably close to 100k people.
Locking them up in prison is fucking stupid...but it's the closest thing to an existing social net anymore, because of teh feelz and governmental no-fucks-given budgetary priorities. Same for drug rehab. I've had guys ask me if they could go into court and file a petition on themselves to get committed into drug rehab...that's how bad it's been at times, to get into a program. |

Absofuckinglutely. They never should have been closed in the first place.

In my AO the jails are stuffed with mentally ill... I see it every day.
There's no other place to keep them. We spend millions of dollars on them and very few if any improve to a point where they can function in society... Honestly... I'm not against chaining some of them to a radiator and giving up on 'em. The only good thing is that these nut bars provide easy six figure incomes for an army of 'mental health professionals". |

Yes they should be reopened but where are they going to find people to work them?
