I disagree on the last paragraph. Not so long ago helping disabled people was an obvious thing to do in our societies. I'm not saying it was easy for them or that it always worked. But in the last 70 years our societies changed to remove any help that wasn't justified. The reason was simply to save money.

Now you must justify that you are different and this difference warrant a different treatment. Because the society became intolerant to difference.

Might be a different comment in the chain where i mentioned i don't agree with this either but if i want the accommodation today then thats my reality.

I am a firm supporter of moving to a needs first society, not because i have a plan to make things sustainable but because the current system where we sell human survival to corporate greed isn’t doing us many favors.
