This big time.

As a disabled person it’s quite horrifying to live under the poverty line barely alive and the only help the government will offer me is assisted suicide.

If living a dignified life isn’t an option, it’s almost forcing many of us to go the suicide route.

When what we’d rather have is more accommodations and support. And be able to enjoy our lives.

(As a recent example, the UK slashed disability income to far below the poverty line and is legalising assisted suicide for disabled people. What kind of message does that send?)
