Original: The Mental Health Industrial Complex: More Money, Drugs and Diagnoses... But Are We Better Off?

Commentator John Stossel argues that despite record spending on therapy, psychiatric drugs and expanding diagnoses, mental health outcomes in the United States have not measurably improved. Drawing on the idea of a 'mental health industrial complex', the piece questions whether overdiagnosis and pharmaceutical dependence have replaced genuine care, prompting debate over the balance between treatment access and commercial incentives.
