People like this will fight tooth and nail to prevent any theoretical “freeloaders” from getting less than minimum wage to survive on at the expense of something like 98.5% of people who make genuine claims (because your description is accurate, it is absolute torture to go through, and this bullshit lie is pushed to manufacture public support to make it even harder), but they accept tax dodging billionaires exploiting society for their own gain as an inevitable part of life they’re happy to put up with because they’ve been brainwashed in to thinking one day it might be them (when the reality is you’re probably thousands of times more likely to become ill and or disabled than you are to become filthy rich).
I feel like thousands of times is deeply underestimating the odds. There are 801 billionaires in the US, while there are over 70 million people living with a disability.
Edit: I should add that I agree very much with the rest of your comment.
Yeah, I didn’t have the energy to go look up the numbers lol I figured thousands still covered hundreds of thousands, but millions might be overshooting it, but you’re absolutely right, thanks.
Unfortunately the justice system does find a lot of guilt people innocent, especially in cases of sexual violence, and or if they have a lot of money and power, so it might not be the best comparison, but I get what you mean!

It’s so fucking twisted.

It’s like saying the problem with the criminal justice system is guilty people being found innocent.
Great parallel. If there is to be error, let it be on the positive side and not hurt those who need help.
