We are voters too

has anyone ever noticed that you'll hear all the time in election debates about what they're going to for social programs or inflation but yet when they say social programs, they never specify what they're going to do for people in wheelchairs that know what to do with their lives. they want to get off the system. i am a libertarian, but i am disabled born with it. so yes i used the system. not by choice. I've tried to get a job but you've got employers that will talk to you like you're a kid, that's a bunch of crap. because they don't want to hire people with disabilities to meet government regulations. but i do think we need to create systems to make us get off the system. or at least make a little bit of money they don't have to get as much as their check. I've never noticed in any debate whether its municipal or federal, they've never said what they're going to do with disabled people and what they're going to do to help, honestly You tube it. This needs to change. we are voters, so why not mention us in any debates? We have a voice too.

A universal income would help a huge amount. Everyone would get money regardless to live their lives and be able to feed, house, cloth and enjoy life, regardless of status. This would also remove the incredible injustice of a system that kicks people off disabled benefits when they dont tick enough boxes.
