@Namaste Not we. They (Trumpers)

California released many state hospital inmates fifty years ago.

Have other states recently done the same?

@yvilletom they closed down most of our state hospitals decades ago in Pennsylvania. It’s considered much more humane to allow them to sleep on the streets, join gangs or Trump caravans.

@yvilletom @Willetom It was Reagan as California governor who did that. However when he became president, he did it again, but this time nationally. Thus the huge homeless explosion in the 1980's. It's part of how he paid for his tax cuts for the rich, by pushing the mentally ill out onto the streets.
