You do agree though that there is a percentage of people that are disabled for life. A prime example of this was my mom who had paranoid schizophrenia. She would get better but had relapses over the course of her life eventually passing away in her 50s. The question is what do we do with those people?
I agree. The big problem how do you balance the very real need for treatment that is consistent and adhered to with the rights of the mentally disabled. Second to that is the whole matter of funding programs that not only see that medical care is followed but that people become as self sufficient as possible for them. Which may mean they never reach full independence.
We can’t just abandon such people to the fates. I know a total welfare state is not the answer but neither is Darwinian social policy.
