It's a shame that so many in this country do not or cannot receive proper care and often times find themselves in prison.

You're damned if you do and damned if you don't. It seems, and I'm sure it's not as black and white, that we had a strange alliance of conservatives who didn't want to pay for mental hospitals, and liberals who didn't think people should be confined in them. Some people cannot take care of themselves. These people need a place to go where they can be taken care of, and treated, and maybe in some instances get well enough to be on their own. Obviously most could never pay for this, so this is where we do. You take care of those who are incapable of caring for themselves.
