Why don't we spend the CONSIDERABLE RESOURCES we are proposing to spend on MAID for mental illness on fucking treatment then? Yeah, it IS a great idea.

Because it isn't considerable resources that we spend on MAID, and it's not the same resources either. Some people with extreme mental illness need to talk to a mental health specialist daily for months or years.

MAID takes a handful of meetings, then a pill.
