No Outcry for the Disabled or very little....
anyone ever hear that saying, first they came for the communists, then they came for the Jews, and then they came for ME? {I am not remembering it perfectly}Well how about the coming for the disabled and poor?I was talking to a friend about this, how silent the nation has been over Obama threatening disabled people. Even 20 years ago no one would have borne that.They are planning to shred social security. I got friends who are disabled with no other income wondering if they will be homeless. Actually our checks have been cut so down with no cost of living increases, soon they will be worth nothing.I am still in shock that there were no protests no where except angry upset people like myself on a few Yahoo articles in the comments sections, no organizations rising up to say HEY THIS IS WRONG. Hey if any of you and old has told me the brainwashed populace will not stand up as they have more money stripped away. Next will come welfare [they are planning to strip that away in many states] and every social safety net. That is what they want. So get ready.Just the silence, alone told me something is very wrong with this country....More back room deals and lies...

I last worked in 1993 when I lost my job due to company buyout after the first bombing of the WTC. Then I took care of my parents for the next 10 years. In 2003 I was diagnosed with hearing disability. This was coupled with the depression of having been a caregiver and losing my parents. Told doctor about depression but all they want to do is give you pills. I refused. I know it was probably stupid not to go for depression treatment, and in the process I screwed myself out of getting SS Disability because I have no proof of depression and have not earned money since 1993. I really did not want the SSD because I truly felt that I would be able to go back to work. I did try to work for about a year but had to leave because of the hearing disability. Now I have back and joint problems. With my husband out of work for 2-1/2 years, I am kicking myself because now I have to wait until retirement to collect. Just venting a little.

The rich want the middle and poor class to die. Then the illegals can be their slaves. We are too educated for them and must go! Always have to pick on the weak in society.
Somehow we must take the money off the rich.
