How does the general economy impact ASD people?

Post Reply New Topic

Do you suspect what goes on in and what laws affect the economy of whatever country you live has a particular impact on people across the autism spectrum or the other way around? I been wondering if the high autism unemployment rate has an impact on the overall functioning of the economy? Do you think further efforts to recruit and train people across the autism spectrum will stimulate employment for that group? Would it be enough?

What are your different opinions.

I'm all for government expanding it's aid to the less well-off groups who need it, but I still think the US government has too many business regulations and bad red tape.

I think the problem is public education in terms of people with such problems and early detection of the symptoms.
