He gets so close-
Violent crime has risen over precisely the period we have shuttered these psychiatric institutions. And you know what? The number one psychiatric institution today is jail. It’s prison. And they don’t do a very good job. And now you then get the calls to clear the jails or to have commuting of sentences or shortening of sentences. People leave those jails in a worse psychiatric condition, often, than when they even entered.
Yes! Yes!
We can do this again learning from past mistakes without those abuses. I don’t think I want to be pumping psychiatric institutions with pharmaceuticals into people.
Seems reasonable.
Faith-based approaches – there are better ways to do this.
Oh for fuck’s sake.
And, of course, the ironic thing is that Ramaswamy is a pharma bro.
I don’t know. If I tell the entire church my daughter is depressed, and we all pray about it during the 11AM Sunday service, and every old lady in the church constantly asks her if she’s “feeling blue,” she’ll shut up about it and never trust me with any intimate secrets ever again. That means it’s cured, right?
