Nazis want to work the disabled at slave wages.
A common misconception is that “the disabled are just happy to work, they don’t care about the money”. That’s bullshit. It’s just ableists taking advantage of the disabled.
It depends, my father is disabled and just wanted to feel useful. In the end he was unable to be productive enough for it to be worth the extra time from the colleagues supporting him.
I’d be happy for the government to subsidize the salaries to match an actual minimum wage, but it is unrealistic to expect disabled people to match the efficiency of abled people and compete with them for jobs of an equal salary. They might not be able to find employment very easily then, which really hurts those who wish to participate in society.
That’s fucking disgusting, a minimum of $2.90 an hour. Fuck me sideways.
We do have the ndis though and as a participant it’s completely changed my life…
Only for the disability for me though. I still have to support myself.
Yeah the ndis is not an income as such. It does help with some things though like travel expenses when a support worker can take me and that adds up a little. I’m a dsp recipient as well i don’t work as such I’d like to i just can’t unfortunately.
