Many people don't realize the value of employer paid healthcare, until they are no longer employed. It is past time for #UniversalHealthcare. The USA is the largest country without a universal healthcare system.

Let me say that this is not a feel-good story. Good on the Dodgers, but we should not be reliant on the good-will of employers for life-saving help.

While this is a commendable act by the Dodgers organization, the stigma still remains with people suffering from mental health issues. Access to mental health insurance, or any health insurance for that matter, should not be dependent on employment. Mental health struggles are an illness, just like any other illness, and we must do better.

The Dodgers take care of their family, Current, former, and retired players. Plain and simple. They always have and they always will.

Not a single comment about how disgusting and sad it is that the only way for this homeless schizophrenic to get mental health services and health insurance is to be signed by the Dodgers?!
