there is a difference between benign neglect and malignant hazard. I see in The Rump the same sadists who paddled me as a child to try to make me normal. I don't see that in billary.

Maybe not, but she follows the SJW crowd a bit too closely.

My issue is more assistance and rights for adults with invisible disability, but no one seems to be talking about it or mentioning or bringing it up.

if one is ill and cannot afford to see a medic [due to the criminally exorbitant cost of health care here in America], not much else matters. good health is the foundation for everything else.

But I am technically homeless, I been couch surfing for the last year and its hard to get into any program that assist with living. I also don't have financial stability and been fighting SSI about disability, despite being qualified for Long Term Medicaid and following under the criteria of Colorado's disability criteria as disabled.

I essential stand at nothing. Living with other people. "Mooching" off of other people's good grace because the government doesn't provide much assistance.

Good Healthcare is all fine, but its only a start

and in this important respect, The Rump doesn't even offer a start. he offers a big fat NOTHING to folks like you and me, other than a kick in the teeth.

all I know is that, I am unfortunately trying to ask help, from a broken welfare system and people think I am just being lazy or not trying hard enough

the GOP holding onto all the reins of power would be even harsher on you and me. far harsher.

True, but I have to uncover the video an Austrian woman was speaking of her encounters in World War and she said something that really struck out to me

"When the people fear their government, that's a dictatorship. When the government fears their people, that's liberty" and I essentially agree with her

I prefer no dictator. I like more like the European Parliament, its odd because I much prefer an Imperialistic interest. Because it feels more pragmatic.

But I also as said, feel like we should have liberty. I am not one to stand for this kind of s**t. I am not going to be shackled down by my government. I am not going to stand for people thought policing either.

I disagree. The DNC's platform talks about that quite a bit.

But its all empty promises, imo. And I am sure the GOP will do something to hinder progress. They'll give assistance, but there will always be an extra condition involved in it. How dare poor people be poor, how dare you be disabled.
