So, our government's "crack down on beneficiaries" also includes disabled children.

Apparently disabled people are, what? Leaches sucking the life out of the economy or something?

How long until disabled people have to "work" for their support? Or perhaps we should just put them on a train and take them to a "work camp"?

Obviously this is a gross generalisation on my part.

Yeah I can understand why rich selfish assholes would vote conservative. It always baffles me that struggling lower class dumb asses do it though.
