So much happened around the same time too.

In 1960, the pill, and how coincidental, followed by the phony'population explosion' foisted off on America. Followed by 'women's lib'. Hart-Celler

But it was the CMHA that caused so many mentally ill to be released onto the streets of America. We are living with that 60 plus years later.

Both parties fell for the end of deinstitutionalization. It has been a huge failure.

And it claimed another victim in Phoenix the other day, one of how many every year?
