Re: Re: Hospital and the DHH

Judy,

I don't know what are your political beliefs, but since ADA is a law, I still

think the government should contribute at least a small bit of it, regardless of

their financial situation.

Re: Hospital and the DHH

I hope you enjoyed the video, . We know very well that

ADA laws don't work unless we challenge those who don't

follow them. All I can say regarding the state paying though,

is lots of luck. Florida is going broke like many others and

cutting back right and left. We have to use our ingenuity

for something like this.

I dont know that political beliefs have anything to do with this. The

law is the law. But when it comes to money, where will it come from? If

there is construction underway or budgeted for, any ADA compliance will

follow.

But to take the position that the ADA is a law and thats that, and

expect the entities in questuion to cough up what is not there, thats

unrealistic. That is not to say we should just sit back and wait until the

economy recovers. We still need to be proactive, to advocate.

Long explanation short... Fundings for ADA comes from various kinds of agencies,

such as DOT, non-profit agencies, state and local government programs, etc.

Therefore, from what I know, our tax money to these kind of stuff... If we are

taxpayers, we should have as much rights as others in terms of accessibility.

" Not enough money " should not be an excuse...

Hmmm, old topic. LOL Well its good you expect to get what you think

you should because its the law. That is fine. But regardless of the

financial source, dont be surprised if you are told, we will do it...when we

have the funds.

" " Not enough money " should not be an excuse... "

Right! But the reality is, the whole country is taking a huge hit in

the wallet at all levels. And no telling how long it will take to recover.

Why do they call it the Department of Interior when they are in charge of

I know it's an old topic... I finally got around to cleaning out my inbox. I

have less than 6,000 new emails as of now.

Yes the economy is bad right now, but I think there should be some priorities to

who should get the funds, etc.

Thats another reason why the economy sucks... IMO Bush spent too much money on

the military over the last 8 years but I know that is not the only one factor to

the decline in the economy. Also I think the government has been making the

wrong priorities for the last several years.... Many years ago, I heard that

drug addicts easily could take government's mony to drug themselves. But

perhaps that changed now.

And, it is up to each individual to fight for their rights and deafness... I

don't tolerate how the people who are disabled are being treated so I am taking

a stand for them so the government could recognize that deafness also causes

some sort of struggle for others.

Re: Hospital and the DHH

Hi ,

Unfortunately there ARE priorities on who gets the money. Number one

is military. I once saw a poster that said, " Wouldn't it be great if the

Air Force had to hold a bake sale to buy a bomber, and school children

got the textbooks they needed.? "

Don't know who sets the priorities, but notoriously the disabled are

way low on everyone list, especially people with a silent disability like

deafness. We aren't in wheelchairs, or missing limbs, so people think

there is nothing wrong with us.

Yes the economy is bad right now, but I think there should be some

priorities to who should get the funds, etc.

There is a great deal that goes on behind closed doors, and has been

going on for decades. There are people who manipulate the economy and thus

control how the country operates. The invasion of Iraq was not based on

political reasons, but financial (oil). Did you know the Federal Reserve is

actually operated by the private sector, not Uncle Sam? Ever wonder where

all that money for the bailouts is coming from? They just print out what

they need. Do you know what this money is backed with? Its not silver, nor

is it gold. They did away with that in the 70s.

The states and cities cannot print money, so they must hold their hands

out to Uncle Sam, who doles out what he wants. The money that has already

been handed to the banks via the bailout will never trickle down to us.

Much of it has gone to the CEO's and key employees in the form of bonuses.

If you want to start somewhere, you can start demanding that money be

returned to us. Why are we bailing out companies that misused or mismanaged

their assets? They are the ones that brought about the foreclosure crisis

that led to the credit freeze that led to the thousands of layoffs and

thousands of businesses closing that is leading to an ever increasing

avalanche effect.

Its very unfortunate that the disabled and seniors are facing huge

cutbacks. Blame it all on those who manipulate the economy. They are

untouchable.

Yes, - I'm in total agreement with you here.  I saw on CNN today that

President Obama would like to hear from the people what they would like to see

him address during the first 100 days.  This was my thought exactly!!!

I need to send Obama my comments too and soon. I agree with him in

spirit but the means is, in my opinion, too unrealistic at this stage.
