I have a decent job with good medical benefits (dental, vision, medical, leave, etc.). Eventhough I have good benefits, but I noticed that there is little to nothing in it when it comes to mental health. Sure, I get a few free sessions of counseling, but nothing long term. This got me thinking that if there is a mental health problem in America, then why aren't we spending more money on mental health as a country, overall? Why are medical benefits that companies offer for mental health so slim or virtually non-existent?

For Debate:
Does America have a mental health problem?

Is there a lack of mental healthcare in America?
