OUR MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS
By: Derek Varsalona
Congratulations to President Biden. The government health insurance plan the Affordable Care Act rolls keeps growing. That is not a great thing. Yes, it is great that people have health insurance but do you really want the government to know all your health information?
People, we have a health crisis in this country. It is a mental health crisis and our government does a horrible job at protecting the most vulnerable amongst us. I believe that the mental health crisis in America was brought on by the pandemic of Corona Virus which was brought on by the world's biggest terrorist and strongest country China. The reason I say this is because if China can shut down a world economy with a simple virus that is no bigger than the flu for most people they are the most powerful country in the world.
The fact of the matter is that in America we do a piss poor job at helping the mentally ill in this country. Yet only one in seven people have health care under the Affordable Care Act. I also have mental challenges and challenges with addiction. I am addicted to caffeinated coffee, and I am getting help. I do not know how it started or when that will end.
But the problem with America is that we do a horrible job for our mentally ill mentally challenged population. We tend not to want to see it on the streets and we tend to turn a blind eye to the subject matter. Again, throwing money at the problem will not help, although it might make a dent. The best way to solve the mental health crisis is through love for one another and fellow human beings. That will get people out of the shadows. As always comments accepted.
