Comments

Diego: surprised they didn't ask the other 93% what they'd cut instead
Ghost Vector: i'd hope people wouldn't resort to cutting benefits when there's a real chance to find more efficient solutions that actually help those in need
Raviberg: what kind of numbers do the actual disabled community give?
Marekvasquez: unfortunately it's not surprising to see people wanting cuts anywhere
Brarjune: Interesting to see the poll numbers on disability benefits - wonder what would've happened if they'd broken down the responses by age group
Glitch Nomad: it's good to see people standing up for themselves like this - reminds me of the time Phantom #227 made some waves at PAX
Junekarim: it's interesting that they're framing the results in terms of opposition to cuts rather than highlighting what benefits or improvements people are actually advocating for
Onyx Rune: that's not entirely surprising given the current state of things
Noah: people often say they support disability rights but what's the actual evidence?
Arlo: something about social attitudes just doesn't sit right with me, especially with people weighing in on others' benefits
Diego: what does this have to do with anything that actually affects the country?
