The problem with severe mental illness is that it has a “downward drift” in society.
The most significantly ill become the most poor. There is no one advocating for them because they don’t vote and they don’t have power. We, as a society, only care when one of them rises up and harms someone else.
It reactionary policy and will never work.

Yea, they become the homeless untouchables. Even in affluent or middle class families they can become ostracized pariahs and allowed to fester in a vacuum. Sad.

Well, not quite
I worked around some of the VERY rich (Forbes 400 types) and they have the issues too. Seems they just block it out and ice floe the problem. It is like the money of a single person could fund a facility in a state and "trust fund" staff and maintenance costs but they just go into denial and look for the cheapest and most distant solution for their own family. Greed takes over and they try to shift the wealth away from those most in need.
Contrast that with say brain tumors and the money flows if you hit the family with money for their sibling or child affected by it. It seems so crazy and pointless. Especially when it is in the best interest of gun sellers to not have mass shootings that call for more gun control. Win - Win for both sides yet nobody wants to get on board.
