And please, please, lets us put mental health back on the top of our national agenda, our prisons and our jails are now our mental health institutions.
If I were just to read briefing books or I were just to engage in the political back and forth, would I have heard what a big problem mental health is in New Hampshire? Would I have heard people say they're really worried about the impact on young people because New Hampshire has the highest tuition and debt problems in the country? i'm not sure I would have.
Keeping them behind bars does little to reduce crime, but it does a lot to tear apart families, our prisons and our jails are now our mental health institutions.
I've had extraordinary good luck with my health, other than a broken elbow.
