SC proposes to cut funding for the disabled

help people who are just druggies, or alkies, or a slew of other "bad choices."

Odds are it varies by state but most low income, made poor choices and are ill from them people, qualify for medicad...the low income fed program adminstered by the states.

Welcome to the Cellar, Bluesky.

And the people who aren't low income try to hide the bad choices as long as they can.

As I keep reiterating, It is extremely difficult for someone who is an alkie/drug user to get government aid - at least in Colorado. If your records show a history of alcohol or drug use, too bad for you. Some do start heavy drinking after they get the aid, but as Bruce pointed out, they die quick. There just aren't that many 70 year old meth freaks out there.
