I've said it before, and that is I wish I had the wisdom of Solomon , but I don't. I do know the Government Budget, is only so big and everyone wants to get their share of that budget, years ahead of time. Each group has their established lobbyist that makes sure the pork get spread their way. The community of people with disAbilities is unfairly under represented when it comes to getting their piece of that budget. The ADA's needs have been around before this country was discovered, but its only a decade old, and needs a lot more leaders and lobbyist to represent them when budget discussions are presented, discussed, argued and doled out.

W, what is the point? We live in a democracy and funds are allocated in a somewhat judicious manner. You asked about the Iraq war, I ask, hypothetically, about money used for space exploration, climate predictions, all sorts of memorials, zoos, historical preservations, etc, etc, etc. It's the price we pay for being an advanced, cultured society. The disabled get some funds but certainly not ALL the money. Sandy
