The Old School position is that crippled people find ways to make themselves useful, we should help them out. There is more than enough white collar work in this nation to get some kind of productive employment to the physically disabled. I'd onshore a bunch of call centers and take my points from that.
From Obama's site:
First, provide Americans with disabilities with the educational opportunities they need to succeed.
Second, end discrimination and promote equal opportunity.
Third, increase the employment rate of workers with disabilities.
And fourth, support independent, community-based living for Americans with disabilities.
All noble sentiments. No noble sentiment should get any more than COLA at the Federal spending level. Maintain what's there.
