Research mental hospitals emptying out during the beginning years of the Reagan Administration. It was bigger than this and also 20 years later. You may be right about Kennedy but I wasn't even born then. I saw the Reagan mental patient exodus happen personally and it was strictly to cut the federal budget nothing altruistic about it. They saved a small amount of money and created modern homelessness. A high percentage of homeless are older ex mental patients from the Reagan era. Anyone from the Kennedy era wouldn't even be alive anymore. They rarely live into their 70's.
