…In Case Anyone Really Thinks Disabled People Are Driven To Suicide Because They’re Disabled –

Suicide attempts by disability benefit claimants double after controversial assessments introduced

Proportion of those attempting to take their own lives soars from 21 per cent to 43 per cent in seven years

…In case anyone really thinks disabled people are driven to suicide because they’re disabled – instead of being driven to suicide because all the Powers that Be collude against them to make their lives miserable.

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again:

The people aren’t cheating the system. The system is cheating the people.

Trump is a child of privilege. He could have educated himself to the world, but he decided to remain the smallest man possible and stay an insecure, loveless racist living in his dad’s black-hearted shadow.
