Plenty of poor people say messed up things, alienate people around them, and screw up their employment. They generally don't end up with involuntary mental treatment. Even if the root cause is because of mania or something.

Well, the whole context we're talking about things in is in the context of involuntary treatment.
- lazide 4y agoIt’s not unlikely that 75 years ago someone doing what he has has been doing would get involuntarily committed. Budget has a big part to play in this.
- mlyle 4y agoWe're galloping to further and further away topics from the original discussion... if he were poor, and it was 75 years ago, it would be not unlikely. I disagree with this assertion, too, BTW, but it's so far from what I set out to discuss that I'm not too interested in responding further.
