We used to have insane asylums where the mentally ill were confined and they tried to help them. Whatever happened to them? Why are the mentally ill wandering the streets?


If we locked up all the mentally ill, we would incarcerate 20% of the population. Most mentally ill are not harmful. The criminally insane, are who should be confined.

It never was an all or nothing policy. However, until Big Education decided that boys must behave like girls in school and Big Pharma was glad to medicate those boys that “mental illness” became so commonplace.
