How many of you will now acknowledge that we need to spend much much more of our money on mental health care that will be lifelong for a growing proportion of our population. This incident should trigger a multi-BILLION dollar spending campaign on hiring more psychs, mental health workers, nurses and social workers.
$Billions are needed RIGHT now just to deal with the issues like FASD now-adults walking around like ticking timebombs.
Our hospitals are over run dumping grounds for psych patients, many of whom were desperately seeking preventative treatment BEFORE they ended up going full blown psychosis, but got nowhere..
The political party that immediately commits to spending the required amount on mental heealth will win big on this.
