#welfare and benefits

Good thing he didn't say "fence sitter" or he'd get shot for trespassing on the lawn.

[earlgraytay]

the worst part of the Fuckery that has been happening is that I am triggered by, among other things, being punished for doing something I was told to do

and that is the definition of how ~means tested benefit programs~ work, especially if the numbers they're testing haven't been updated in decades

... if they want you to get off benefits and make a living

if the entire point is that, if you can work, you should be able to work

WHY THE FUCK AM I GETTING PUNISHED. FOR TRYING TO WORK. AND LIVE A MEANINGFUL LIFE. INSTEAD OF FUCKING ROTTING ON NOT-ENOUGH-MONEY PER MONTH.

CN suicide, political and systemic ableism

In Irish politics, we almost never had disabled people be anything more than props for use for photo ops, or to demonise as welfare cheats

In Irish politics, we talked about the hard work of our carers once in a rare while, but never the hard work of disabled people being cared for or looking after ourselves

In Irish politics, disabled people are objects of pity, and not people trying to get through our days as denizens and citizens of our country which often tells us that we do not belong here

In Irish politics, we protect the facade of a colonial era building before we'll put in a ramp or lift to let a disabled person who needs it go inside

In late 2023 a Green Paper was published on reforming payments to disabled people in ways that meant we would be under more regular surveillance, be pressured into employment services or potentially risk sanction, and be under pressure to work enough to stop receiving payments. It would also tier us depending on how disabled we could prove we are

This document was made without Disabled Persons' Organisations involved, in direct contravention of our recently won rights under the UN Convention on the Rights of People With Disabilities

It led many, including myself, to absolute despair, and I had the worst suicidal ideation I'd had in nearly six years

The only thing that kept me alive was a promise to keep fighting it alongside my fellow disabled people just for a little bit longer, but it got pretty close at times

We didn't really expect to win, but one day after seven months of fighting, we somehow did

The government backed down Disabled people will be part of any future attempts at reform

We even got the Dáil to declare that there should be non means tested, universal disability payments, even if the government is nowhere near that sort of position yet

But as much headspace as that took up, and as big as that victory was, the day to day thriving of disabled people in Ireland remains blocked by a system designed to keep taxes on corporations low and the costs of disability high

In watching the last Disability Matters Committee, there was case after case of how disabled people are being failed by the state, with the politicians on the committee hearing the stories and wondering how many more times they were going to have to hear the same things before there is action by the government

The committee has had report after report to the Dáil stating the dire problems with disabled rights in Ireland and nonetheless, the government decided to put out that Green Paper which ignored all of their recommendations and did more harm to disabled people. Nonetheless, the government have cut services and underfunded our needs

People unable to have their vehicles adapted because they didn't lose the correct limb

People left without insurance for their prosthetics

People unable to access personal assistance hours

People not able to live their lives

So I painted something to express how our politics treats our lives

It took me awhile but here it is

A mouse was placed at the top of a jar filled with grains. It was so happy to find so much food around him that no longer he felt the need to run around searching for food. Now he could happily live his life. After a few days of enjoying the grains, he reached the bottom of the jar.

Suddenly, he realize that he was trapped and he couldn't get out. He now has to fully depend on someone to put grains in the jar for him to survive.

He now has no choice but to eat what he's given.

A few lessons to learn from this:

1. Short term pleasures can lead to long-term traps.

2. If things come easy and you get comfortable, you are getting trapped into dependency.

3. When you are not using your skills, you will lose more than your skills. You lose your CHOICES and FREEDOM.

4. Freedom does not come easy but can be lost quickly.

5. NOTHING comes easily in life and if it comes easily, maybe it is not worth it.

Don't curse your struggles. They are your blessings in disguise.

[headpainmigraine]

They're 100% gonna block me, but just to stop anyone giving them money, @daydream-gem is a scammer

I tried tirelessly to provide =non-monetary= assistance to them years (literal years) ago, which expended time and effort that I don't have as an actually disabled person

They didn't reply, didn't update, and when I asked about it, they blocked me.

Don't give this lying piece of trash anything, they're just siphoning off help that actual people in need could use, many of those people being YOU.

I know the disabled community especially wants to help fellow disabled people, but most of us are on benefits.

Don't give what little you have to this long-time predatory scammer.

[dougielombax]

No you can’t compare welfare and benefits to indentured servitude, workhouses or slavery!

You daft shite!

[bobapril]

All of this. All the more so because my parents needed it some of time when I was young. My young family needed it when I was a poor-but-honest junior enlisted man in the Army, with a wife and two kids. I don't need it now - but things could easily have happened differently. If you qualify, you NEED it. We have experts making that determination, and they are making it as stingy as possible, so trust their expertise. And if you need it, I want you to have it. I makes life better for all of us.

If you feel ashamed of getting government provided assistance

whether that's Snap, or cash assistance or housing or insurance or WHATEVER.

I just want to say- I am a tax paying middle class person.

For the love of whatever you find holy, TAKE THE HELP. Seriously. Please. I am paying these taxes, and I am begging you to use that money to make your life better.

I find it tremendously depressing when my tax money goes to tanks for cops or subsidies for billionaires or general colonizing bullshit.

I want my tax money to improve your life. I do not give one single shit what you do with your cash assistance. I don't care if you think you maybe possibly could have gotten by without SNAP. If you can qualify TAKE IT. Eat as well as you can. Live as well as you can.

If you feel bad, picture me, cheering you on with every single choice you make that brings you comfort, stability or joy.

You are not a burden. You are my neighbor. There is enough to go around and I want us all to thrive.
