I believe we've defined eligibility for that program based on outdated attitudes about what people with significant disabilities are capable of doing in the workplace. |
It's creative. The penny fee on stock transactions is an interesting thought. |
Most disabled people would tell you that the bigger concerns they have around the workplace are not around physical accessibility. They're more around attitudes. I think it's easier to legislate and see change around bricks and mortar than it is around attitudes. |
The bottom line, from my perspective, is the biggest programs that serve people with disabilities are from an era when expectations were not as great as they are today. |
They all focus on how we get people to save for disability when they are young and healthy. |
We're trying to make a place for ourselves in society at a time when science is trying to remove at least some of us. For me, it's very scary. |
