what about research.  i can see that as a lonely job which an ASD challenged person can obsess over.
again, there are a shitload of jobs.  i am sorry that you took this so personally,  but maybe rightly so.

Which is why I tried for a PhD. Research requires a tremendous commitment to be able to be
an accepted fellow. These are NOT the people you're trying to help, any more than I am if I
can hold ANY job. And if I can't, I shan't be helped by your dream either, just left in a world
with NO entitlements. Sounds like a nightmare to me.

But, it's really not going to be easy to convince those who depend
upon them for a little bit of extra security to give them up, just so
that life can get bad enough that they are starving and willing to
change things. You'd be best off supporting big business all the
way.

the security is exactly what George Bush sold in his last election win. 
fear is a great motivator, and i find it distastful how many cowards there are.

'tis human nature. Only religious fanatics are brave.
dianetics?

Sure, why not? Or communism. Take whichever religious model
you want. I'd suggest one that was successful however. Seems
more of a chance for your cause. Given your stance on entitlements,
Baptist might be a good choice.

but a grassroots movement deserves a grassroots religion.

or is it the other way around?

Also, whether you like it or not, a lot of the new service sector jobs like 'greeters' are simply not practical for a lot of people with ASDs to do.
the greater was a mere example.

but a representative one of the calibre of customer facing, minimum wage slave jobs which have replaced the mill and factory work here.

not much call for researchers in a rundown, post-industrial yorkshire town, sadly.

McJagger made a funny. :LMAO:

Maybe in SoCal there is a plethora of career opportunities; they just don't exist here. The dominant job available here is call centre work. Talking to people all day, every day, surrounded by people, treated like cattle and micromanaged by fuckwits. An aspies dream job. For the semi-literate, there's retail. Thats. about. it.

Damn right its personal. I AM the individual. And without any way of allying with the other oppressed millions, without welfare I'd be up shit creek.

Damn right its personal.

without welfare, there would be alot more people storming parliament.


dunc, did you read the entire thread?


i am not making any assumptions about your manhood.  i am simply trying to challenge people to get pissed.  to attempt to change their lot.


and being pissed isn't nearly enough. btw.
Misunderstood.

You don't have welfare in the US, at least not compared with Europe, but unlike Europe, most Americans have or can get a gun very easily, even machine guns. You have yet to storm the White House and the Congress and large corporation buildings...

We also have McDonald's.
You can't storm anything when you're
busy stuffing your face.
