It may seem politically incorrect to say this


Mentally ill have too much autonomy for their own good, says professor

But he has some interesting thoughts. While the warehousing of the mentally ill i another generation was often a horror in itself, the current medicating and tossing out on the street of the mentally ill is just as horrid a way of dealing with the sick. The problem is that the world needs loving, caring people to do something. It's on a personal level, I think, not necessarily a government one. I would like to have heard this lecture.
