I just find that the truth of the sitiation in countries with wonder socialized health/support systems is vastly different than the perception you guys put forward to us here in the USA.
BTW go ahead do yourself a favor and edit that post before more of us americans see it. My compatriots may not be as forgiving as me.
But to get back to my original point why arent these people receving effective care or hospitalization in your wonder medical system instead of being on the streets?
I think the reason is the borderline between human rights for the looneys and the security for the society.
You can put a guy in a secure hospital for the rest of his life, but there is not just that easy, not in skandinavia or in the USA i guess.
there have to be very clear proofs and incidents of violence before they can put them in, beside physciatric care cannot force people unless they damage themselve or others first.
It is not a easy way to find a solution in a democratic country.
In a none democratic country they just shoot them, and I guess many who did not deserved that get shoot too (most of them)
I get this feeling you dont want to see anything else that your system is the best one Grunherz, to bad. (us system is very good, but so is many euro systems too)
I see faults with our system, and I guess there is problems in the US with crazy people walking around too ?
Somthimes in life things happens that we have no control over either youre a politician, worker, popstar or a alcoholic.
I feel that you show disrespect for others opinions, and I do not undertand youre way of thinking Grun.
I can see no reason for the negative waves you send us euro guys

Are we that negative too ?
