Give Medicare to mentally ill with no waiting period. Please sign this petition [View all]

This could really help our mentally ill population in this country who are now sorely uncared for.

"Give Medicare to the mentally ill with no waiting period. There is an epidemic of mass murders. Our prisons are overflowing with mentally ill patients. The number of mentally ill patients that are homeless is staggering.

We have to do a lot more.

But this is one politically acceptable solution that could be approved soon.
This is a first step, a step you could take in the presence of a highly divided political environment."
