Remploy.

[number 6]

If you didn't already know this govt are scum,then the fact they are closing over half of these factories that give the disabled a lifeline should tell you all you need to know.

They say the money can be better spent and the budget stays the same, not sure if i believe them..

Firstly I believe if Remploy is being run for the benefit of the disabled and not for a bunch of crooked, fat cat managers, then if anything the scheme should be widened. However,

"Remploy senior management received ?2 million in fat cat bonuses while at the same time failing to bring work into the factories!" Socialist Party 2012

So, before we start saying, "Those bastard Tories, next they'll be tipping the disabled out of their wheel-chairs and melting them down for scrap!" you will see it was actually New Labour that started smashing up the Remply scheme in 2008. However as I recall, there was not a murmur either on this forum or in any newspaper as far as I recall. Here is an article from the Socialist Party, read it!

Another good example of why nothing will ever change for the better as long as Con-Lab-Dem cycle remains unbroken.

They're ALL shite.

Basically, the last government that actually gave a toss about the people of this country was Atlee's Labour government of 1945. Now the country regardless of who is in power, is run by massive factions of greedy, crooked fat cats, who share the spoils amongst themselves.

I think when you say the handicapped need a "Long term solution"don't you actually mean, a "Final solution?"!adolf!

I am half thinking that you are joking, but the other half of me thinks you are deadly serious. But how would you decide, which handicapped people to exterminate? What level of incapacity would merit extermination? Would ugliness mixed with a gross handicap, be enough for a child to be dragged from his wheelchair and eliminated, or would the victim have to be unconcious to the world around him to warrant execution?

What about Stephen Hawking the great physicist, should he be eliminated? The Nazis were quite good at dealing with the question of how to deal with the handicapped:

Someone like Adolf, Benito or Joseph perhaps?

Now your just being silly. Handicapped people and their wealthy families will be fine. Ugly disabled can still earn a living. I'm talking about the ones who need state handouts or these specialist jobs from remploy. I mean what sort of life do they have? When we put our disabled pets to sleep we are as you say "exterminating them." Sometimes because the vets bill will be too high. We say that we are being kind to end their suffering. Whats the difference? Lets be kind to the handicapped. We can offer them a way out of their misery and save some money too! Can we really afford not to be kind? The sort of jobs Remploy offer can be done by monkies. There are plenty of those on the dole who need work right now. We would be helping those and so reducing benefits.

We need to start to reduce the population further. The elderly are living too long! I suggest making the elderly pay for all medicines and treatments after the age of 75. I think that is fair? After all 75 is a good age to go if you don't have any money.
