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"?

Apparently, according to the minister, disability support spending is $65m over budget.

Oh,I'm sorry, are there too many disabled people?

Or are they just too disabled?

They chose life and New Zealand poltical leadership took that personally...

Have they just tried being less disabled?
