Balancing the budget on the backs of the people, whom can least afford the cut? So what else is new? Poor people clearly have no value. The state should just exterminate us instead of ensuring our slow death by starvation and denial of services.
We have always had a class of ruthless people who blame the poor for their poverty. Ironically the ruling class never hesitates to use the labor of the poor to enrich themselves. Our planetary resources are now reaching a critical level. We cannot afford a ruling class that continues to deny their part in the overall scheme of things.
The people of our planet who established cultures which lived in harmony with their environment have almost all been assimilated for their own good, a gift from the ruling class.
A poor disabled person is a valuable resource just waiting to be tapped. There is an underground economy, a barter economy not seen by the average person, yet is part of the survival strategy of the poor. The poor have a lot of survival knowledge to share if anyone would bother to listen.
The current thinking is not sustainable and has never been sustainable. Nothing has changed in my lifetime except we have more poverty and a ruling class that chooses to marginalize completely new groups of people.
Immigrants for instance, are now a target for marginalization. The reality is that immigrants built our country. The rich business class has always used immigrant labor, used them horribly and illegally.
Our government has ignored this practice because the business class has access to lawmakers. Access denied to the poor. We are given lip service, that is about it.
The elderly, disabled and poor are carrying the blame for being elderly, disabled and poor. While it may make someone feel better about themselves to blame the poor for their poverty, it is not realistic. Humans will always gravitate toward what they know and what they have experienced. Poverty is a human experience. Education is and has always been the key to dismantling the grip of poverty. Yet look at our schools. States are now using the institutional prison model for educating our youth.
Are we doomed to keep repeating our history? I for one am fighting very hard to change my pattern. I want a sustainable life. A life where I live right up until I die.
