Sigh. You're still not addressing my point regarding the rationale given behind the travel bans.

It was a temporary 90 day ban to figure "what was going on." But 239 days later, they still needed more time to figure out what was going on? And now that time is indefinite and not 90 days? It was a "Muslim ban." But then it wasn't a Muslim ban?

Why couldn't they just be honest and say the ban actually was in large part a Islamic extremist ban that was never meant to just be temporary? There's certainly arguments for that. Why couldn't the administration just be honest with Americans?




They were with the first ban, and the DEMS went nutz, so they changed it to a temp ban. That was to placate the DEMS, not because the REPS were being dishonest.
If YOU want to rewrite history to suit your belief system, that's fine, but don't pretend you're justified in doing so for the rest of us.










/e Here's your REAL climate change. ^^

some people's work is worth less than that of others, that's a simple fact. that handicapped persons shouldnt be exploited at $2/h and that CEOs tend to earn more than their work is objectively worth is true, but doesnt change this fact.

the subminimum wage is based on productivity of non disabled workers and can get pretty damn low

but the work itself depending on the disability and severity can often be stacking cardboard or something similar to that

typically the work requirement isn't much but is a part of the overall funding of that individual based on their disability and case file

I have clients that make a few bucks a week as the work is required as part of their funding but the work itself isn't much more than some sort of basic task that they are able to safely preform

really it's about getting them into the community with tasks and accomplishments and the companies taking advantage of that by claiming they work with and include those with intellectual disabilities

Many work through places like goodwill where they have a community setting
