There is no constitutional foundation to giving them any taxpayer money. We do it because we want to.

There have only been 3 psychiatric hospitals that I have been to in my life that I view as at least somewhat beneficial. Two were in Atlanta, Georgia area (Ridgeview in Smyrna and Peachford) and one in Nashville, Tennessee (Skyline). This was because they kept the patients busy with therapy programming all day with a proactive therapy approach.

The rest (all in Tennessee) have been mostly crap, and I wouldn't doubt they are money schemes. While there is no abuse or draconian practices, they are just temporary nursing homes with enhanced safety features and supervision. There is very little programming, little access to a therapist, minimal communication, and all they do is heavily medicate you, feed you, and watch you as you color on coloring sheets and watch TV. There is very little to no aftercare arrangements, leaving these places as revolving doors.

Trump has lost more manufacturing jobs than gained with Tariffs. With Supreme Court about to rule against him and make him give back what little he has brought in with Tatiffs. You do understand even if Tariffs worked Americans don't buy American made products because they are higher. That is why American Compnaies left in the first place , cheaper labor. You must pay Americans more money , include paid days off, more for Holidays , sick leave, insurance, and pay unemployment insurance. (By the way even with Tariffs it is cheaper to still make products in foreign countries). Plus Trump said Americans are not up to the task for manufacturing and wants foreign workers to those jobs (real reason is that foreign workers work for less). Plus you have AI/Robots for routine manufacturing. SO not many jobs for Americans created and Price will still be higher than foreign products. This is why it won't work.

By the way unemployment just went up over 4% with fixed stats , it is really 20% unemployment. You can look at Debt clock page and look at who is working and who isn't.

I happen to take this matter personally because of what happened to me.

When I was 20, I met this 16 year old girl online on an adult dating app. We really hit it off, and we began conversing for a series of months. We both researched the age of consent in her state, and found that it was 16. I drove to meet her, and we had a date. Things got intense later, and we ended up having sex. It ended up only being a weekend fling because she didn't want to pursue a romantic relationship with me. I was heartbroken. We had a dispute weeks later, and she never wanted to speak to me again.

7 months later while at my college dorm, I made an idiotic decision to drive back to her state to apologize and win her heart again. I was met at the door by her father, who was unhappy to see me to say the least. I shook his hand and agreed to cut complete contact. As I went back to my hotel, the police knocked on my door and arrested me. Fast forwarding, I was sentenced to 3 years supervised probation. The collateral damages were just as bad if not worse, as I lost my EMT license and my career.

The reason why I bring this up is because if this were to happen to someone who was elite, had money, or had high influential status, they would have likely just received a slap on the wrist or not have been touched at all by the law.

Instead, an average everyday person, let alone a young 20/21 year old trying to pursue love at that time, had his entire reputation and livelihood destroyed.

These elitist bastards flew 14 year old girls on an island, passed them around as casual sex dolls, and they get away with it completely unscathed. It's sick.

Now that I am 31 and married, I look back in hindsight with regret and sadness I became so desperate. I was young and dumb. But I am even more angry at the devastation it caused for so many years when, meanwhile, elitists just continue to thrive and get away with high-profile crimes.
