In Vermont, USA, there is a 2.5+ million dollar cut to the budget that gets people with Developmental Disorders services, like job finding, housing, all that stuff. If the cut goes through, all the new people coming into the system won't get the services they need. I think it's a very bad idea to let the budget cut happen, to be honest.

I don't really know how to end this, but here.

The Punishment Lobby gets their jollies out of the pain of others and they unfortunately are in command.

Sadly, all the politicians see is "another group wanting money".

Except of course when it's a mercenary outfit or some killers helping out with the War of Terror or running gulags, etc... then money is no object.
