One of our daughters suffers from mental illness among other things. Mental illness is not well funded by insurance and is extremely difficult to treat with current methods. Drugs mask more than cure. it can destroy lives and families.

I'm sorry to hear that about your daughter. I just can't fathom the logic behind not funding mental health. Things as basic as food consumption and substance abuse, to the ability to hold a job, pay bills, and coexist harmoniously with others rests on mental function. It seems vastly more expensive letting people self destruct opposed to investing in them, instilling the tools needed to develop a habitual productive thought process.
