Utah police like Obamacare

[Panich52]

Bloomberg:

"Police chiefs and sheriffs who run local jails in states that haven’t expanded Medicaid are coming out in favor of Obamacare on the grounds that it could help drug addicts and people with mental illness get help before they commit crimes … Jim Winder, the elected sheriff of Salt Lake County, says 15 percent to 18 percent of the 40,000 people booked each year into the county jail—Utah’s largest—are severely mentally ill, about the same as the national rate.”

1. Severely mentally ill?

I have friends who claim that's a precondition for living in Utah. My parents lived there, and it made them crazy. They watched Pat Robertson on the 700 Club religiously. (yes, pun intended)
