It costs more money to harm disabled people

It costs more money to not help homeless people

It costs more money to send people to Rwanda

she's correct here but its funny because that person is no friend of disabled people, and in fact bullied one (me) when i mentioned I'd been discriminated against at a branch of her favourite union. The clout left are frauds imo.

There's a flavor of dystopia where everyone is entitled to a job but the job is gatekeeping benefits for people who can't work.

Took my wife two years to get approved for disability benefits through social security and we had to hired a lawyer to help. Cannot imagine how someone without a non-government support system is supposed to get through all that

Yeah, been fighting tooth and nail to try and get SSI for being disabled for the last 5 years and every step of the way they've denied us, and our medical providers refuse to write letters about our disabilities in support of SSI...

Being forced to defend my status at a disability “reassessment” actively re-traumatized me. It was utterly degrading to have a PTSD panic in front of an apparently callous agent of a contractor specializing in finding people “no longer disabled”. Wrong diagnosis. AND I got “lucky” with the outcome.

I live in fear every day that some unseen invisible force will just decide I am no longer disabled even though I'm pretty sure I'm not gonna grow back parts of my brain

This extends to most benefits in the US. We are so afraid of helping someone who is “undeserving” that we waste an absurd amount of time/money trying to weed people out. But it just makes the benefits suck for the people who need it. It’s like we need people to feed bad for accepting them.

My wife's Social Security claim was denied, of course. So she attended some seminars and redid the paperwork and filed again, and was denied again. Then found out there are agencies you can hire to help you get approved. If we could afford to hire an agency for that we wouldn't need the disability.

This, and having to repeatedly report problems with accessibility before you even receive a response, then having to repeatedly report those problems again to get any sort of action.

Yes, but, this way the money goes to companies, rather than the people who need it, so to a Tory, that’s fine.

Also just like "I'm radicalized about disability" (doesn't include alt text) like be better I'm sorry I don't usually shame people for this but all you had to do was copy and paste it and not rely on someone else to transcribe for you.

Yeah, once you realise exactly how much is spent on this shit just to ween out less than peanuts from social security fraud, it really highlights how fucking nasty the whole business is.
