The world doesn't owe anyone anything. Not just "the disabled community". People that whine about the world being in debt to them are idiots. Doesn't mean it doesn't hurt to help someone out that can't help themselves as much as they like to. But essentually, the world doesn't owe anyone anything.
My mother kept drumming into me that the world owes me nothing either, and It's good now that I believe it. I won't be a take take take person.
So get the fuck over it already.
True. None the less society is founded on certain principles of fairness.
If you take these principles entirely away, you end up in an anarchy -
where such things as property rights don't really exist, and ownership
is determined merely by who can take something (ok - that's the way
it still is, but the weapons supposedly include more fairness built in);
everyone becomes a "take take take" person, or they lose out.
Now, the 'have's' expect the government to protect them and their
property from the depredations of the unwashed masses, and likewise,
it seems not unreasonable for those less fortunate to expect somewhat
better treatment than they currently receive (at least in the US - one gets
the feeling that the UK is somewhat more forgiving of its poor).
