We’ve had a major mental health crisis ever since Reagan allowed the left to convince him to close the asylums.
Yep and most people aren’t aware of that fact.
California democrat governors before and after Reagan did the same. No one gets a “pass” on closing the mental hospitals. They need too be reopened pronto!
It's not on Reagan.
In the mid-1960s a Medicaid provision prohibited reimbursement to states for mental illness treatment in facilities that had more than sixteen beds. States then closed their large mental hospitals in order to get 50% reimbursement from Medicaid for out-patient treatment.
