CW: Disasters, disability rights, US Pol
Reminder set, under 10% of housing is fully #DisabledAccessible, only about 1% of #EmergencyServicesCenters including shelters, are #DisabledAccessible. Most disabled people are below the artificially lowly set federal poverty line. Most disabled are likewise the least & last informed on public emergencies & as said people need the most time to travel, in cases where evacuation is needed. Most disaster/emergency response plans include leaving #disabled people behind, including evacuations, and then returning afterwards, including sometimes listing people after pets of ableds, to get said people (if they live).
Likewise #SSI at it's maximum is below a full time minimum wage pay, even as disabled adults are exempt from needing to be paid said minimum wage.
The highest percentage of deaths from the recent fires in California is of seniors & disabled, which isn't an accident overall but a set of public policy choices & a lacking of enough pushback against them, in it's enactment of #Eugenics.
