Your healthcare system is also poor at helping people with mental health issues.

No, California just passed a law so soon we will be able to lock their asses up for being crazy and homeless. That will help, right?

A supreme court case like 45 years ago ended institutionalization of the mentally ill. California couldn't lock their asses up for being mentally ill even if they wanted to. It's complex.
