I am simply stating from a MORAL perspective that society today is more at risk safety wise than say in the 50's and 60's.

I disagree with that as well. our crime rates are lower than in decades. One reason people give is more meds for mental illness. Another is that lead is no longer an issue like it once was, with it removed from gasoline and paint. Even the romans knew it could make you crazy.
Now, if you want to talk priorities with funding, thats something to discuss. We can afford to outspend the rest of the world military wise, but we cant afford better education? Health care, including for mental illness?
