@fsinn I think people don't realize that most long-term residents of skilled nursing facilities are on #Medicaid. (#Medicare used to cover SNF services.) Grandparents or elderly parents, or severely #disabled. Nursing homes are prohibitively expensive otherwise. Candidates for a nursing home have to use up all of their savings and other wealth beforehand, in order to qualify for Medicaid. Except for the wealthy, most of us will need Medicaid.

The culture war against the disabled & their benefits conitinues with accusations of fraud among users of Motability Operations who organise leases of modified vehicles for disabled users.

On a user base of around 700,000 vehicles, last year the firm removed 5,300 users from their scheme due to miss-use.

These figures are being used to claim the system is rife with miss-use/fraud & should be clamped down on, with added tracking & surveillance of users.

It could get nasty!

A #satire #rant about how I would LOVE to buy a house, as I am quite frugal, and believe in things more permanent, and don't have to keep paying for forever.

I am #disabled so I am poor cuz I guess disabled people deserve to be according to the US government since I only get about 1100 a month, and they even want to take that away!

I have no interests that will ever likely make me rich, and refuse to do a job I hate, so I'll be poor forever!

The clinic is letting me pay at a later date! Still in need of $160 to cover it all. Meds are taken care of for the time being, this will cover the rest of the appointment. Please help, I need to be able to continue treatment to stay alive and healthy and be able to work on my game.

** MUTUAL AID REQUEST **

:boostRequest:

Hello all, it's your friendly neighborhood mod Glitch, and I am in need of your help!

I am a disabled trans nonbinary neurodivergent individual who is unable to work due to chronic illness (ME/CFS) and I am still waiting on disability stuff, and being in the US, the current administration has made things much harder for me.

I need help to cover bills for the rest of March and April, personal and household needs, medical weed, and cat food and cat litter.

$15/325 goal.
