He gets so close-

Violent crime has risen over precisely the period we have shuttered these psychiatric institutions. And you know what? The number one psychiatric institution today is jail. It’s prison. And they don’t do a very good job. And now you then get the calls to clear the jails or to have commuting of sentences or shortening of sentences. People leave those jails in a worse psychiatric condition, often, than when they even entered.

Yes! Yes!

We can do this again learning from past mistakes without those abuses. I don’t think I want to be pumping psychiatric institutions with pharmaceuticals into people.

Seems reasonable.

Faith-based approaches – there are better ways to do this.

Oh for fuck’s sake.

And, of course, the ironic thing is that Ramaswamy is a pharma bro.

    for sure that’s true, but the data does actually show faith based activities have even better outcomes. it’s not just a coincidence. to be fair this is very hard to study. but at least anecdotally, people who have beliefs and organize around them always strike me as the happiest.

      Is it “data shows…better outcomes” or “anecdotally…”? Those don’t mean the same thing. If you’ve got sources, please share.

          In any discussion or debate, the burden of proof is on you.

          You need to do the googling as no one cares about your opinion as much as you.

          Have a point? Claim there is data? Back it up yourself or go home.

            its the internet. im not going to waste a bunch of time doing research for you. you can either go to the Pew center or not. If you were interested you would. If you aren’t interested, why do you care?
