This is an olde thread and I don't live in the U.S., but I wondered why
the EFA didn't lobby? to get Tax Rules set, so e.g. Businesses who hire
people listed as 'having disabilities' got some kind of tax credit for
helping with their re-training.
The 'loss' by giving them a Tax Credit like that, could be more than
overcome by the number of people who could be gainfully employed, paid
more and thus pay more taxes back into the system... I don't know how
that relates to 3 paragraphs up(**s), where you said the ADA made you a
'burden to small businesses to hire you'.
IF they got a Tax Credit (like I mentioned) on their Employment
Taxes, hiring people who qualify and help with their further training,
there might be more incentive for them to help, and less for you to
feel like a burden? on them. If the rate of people who get Seizures
sometime in their lives is really 1 in 15? that's 7% of the
population-- other figures I saw years ago were only 1 in 30-- I
wonder what (if anything) would happen, to an economy, if 7% of the
population didn't Buy anything for 2 weeks... G./
