There is more mental healthcare now. People just don't seek it out, especially from SES classes who need it the most.
Lower class mentality/culture is toxic in many ways, and you're explaining one of them.

What he is referring to is the deinstitutionalization of the mentally ill. We used to lock them up in mental health facilities, but we had far too many people in those institutions. In the 80’s, during the Reagan Administration, a bi-partisan solution was implemented, which led to the closing of many of these institutions and that’s where the giant homelessness situation came from.
It doesn’t seem to bear on this current issue, but it is a factor in the trashiness of our cities.
