Using due process to put people (housed or not) with serious mental illnesses into a dedicated care facility is fine.
That’s my point. My desire is a system where the homeless are assisted in transition back to normal life, including rehab if they’re suffering from addiction.
I don’t believe all the ills of the homeless are tied to mental illness.
Then I’m not really sure what your point has to do with mine. What you’re describing is not what Regan destroyed through deinstitutionalization, and I wouldn’t really call a system like that a “mental institution”.
