Entrepreneur Andrew Yang has thrown his hat into the ring for the 2020 presidential election.

Entrepreneur and Democratic 2020 presidential candidate Andrew Yang has said that he would like to see a mental health professional embedded within the government.

Dubner then asked Yang if he had come up with the idea before the current presidency, to which he responded: “You know, I always thought so. I mean, my brother’s a psychology professor. And so I think it would also help destigmatize mental health issues and anxiety and depression around the country. And just say, look, we all have struggles—that includes people at the top of government.”

The campaign site claims that such measures would “permanently grow the economy by 12.56 to 13.10 percent—or about $2.5 trillion by 2025—and it would increase the labor force by 4.5 to 4.7 million people. Putting money into people’s hands and keeping it there would be a perpetual boost and support to job growth and the economy.”

Your suggestion is a psychologist or is it psychiatrist because both r only people who make errors like everyone else. And while everyone knows the person who follows Gods laws knows mans laws are based on different types of beliefs a shrink or group therapy may never solve. Y/N?

No, because then an unelected official has more power than the White House. That can't go unchecked.

Mr Yang, Donald doesn’t need a psychologist. Don needs a Psych Wing.
