Our political system spent 40 yrs creating a time when even before the pandemic 40% of us couldn't afford $400 unexpected expenditure, creating chronic anxiety & despair among millions of people; now worse. What does that system call this problem? "A mental health crisis."

Mental health, vision and dental ALL must be covered in healthcare. It’s unacceptable the way it is.

it could be called a Mental Health Crisis ... but there are reasons behind this crisis ... Taxes that bleed income from the poor and middle class and give it to the rich ... allowing corporations to become monopolies ... allowing union busting ... and the list goes on and on!
You got what you voted for. Evil. You called it lesser, and there’s really no such thing. We are seeing that play out. We will continue to see it okay out until people STOP participating in fear mongering lesser evil b.s.

It is a crisis of capitalism. Look at how well all the socialist countries are doing right now.

I hope you don't mind if I drop this here. The big milestone of lives lost, with all the other suffering - the long-term illness, families, then the financial crisis - none of it had to happen. See other countries. We must have the will to do this.
Today we start a 500,000 contact effort. It's an incredibly high number, but I'd like to feel that each person lost to COVID has been represented by an email, call, or fax to an elected official (or other who talks about COVID). We will need a lot of help!

MLK Jr. said it best, “a nation that continues to spend year after year more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift approaches spiritual death.” It’s way past time for a ReBirth!
