And you think...
It costs a fraction.
What do we actually put into caring for people who have schizophrenia?
So first, there's a moral imperative.
But let's say we put that aside and we only care about the economy, right?
Because there are mechanisms of thinking that look at it that way.
How could we not amend that, right?
But we are so reckless about...
with our resources and we're tripping ahead of ourselves that we don't think, oh my goodness, there is no better place on God's earth for prevention than here, prevention in terms of human suffering and also where do people like that go?
I mean, more often, people like that go to a place of increased suffering, inability to take care of themselves or to be in supportive relationships.
Okay, we know there's a higher prevalence of that, but we're also creating the pool of people through which
the envy, the narcissism, the sociopathy, the destruction arises.
So again, if we care about people, we would be so focused on that.
If we don't care about other people and just ourselves or just economic costs, we would still be so focused.
But, you know, we're not and we tend to just kind of call it good because we don't see anything disastrous happening at the moment.
And I think there's a societal negligence there to the shame really of all of us
when child abuse and the impact neurobiologically and psychologically is potentially the greatest cause of suffering directly and indirectly on the face of the planet.
It can impact it a lot.
And I want to say, can people overcome and be as loving to a partner or a child or anyone else?
Yes.
