A voice those who can't speak

A voice those who can't speak.
For the mentally disadvantaged
Information about the Arco program

To qualify for this program a person has to have an IQ of 70 or
below.
This program gives cuts to employers that hire the handicapped.
This program also exempts employers from having to pay minimum wage.
People from this program, welfare forced work reform programs, and
waitresses are all exempt from employers being required to pay them
minimum wage.
The minimum wage law is a law that states it is for all people
regardless of age ,race, nationality. or handicap.
The minimum wage law is broke.
The mentally handicapped and forced labor programs pay sixty cents a
hour or sixty dollars a month.
These programs are slave labor programs that exploit our mentally
handicapped and socially disadvantaged citizens,
America should be above slave labor programs.
There should be programs for the mentally handicapped,
and socially disadvantaged, but it should be in areas of art, and
computers
I have seen those with learning disabilities learn quickly to use a
computer.
Quicker and sometimes better than a well educated person that has
no disability.
Alone I'm but a small voice, but together as a great nation
We can speak out against slave labor programs that our fore fathers
have fought do desperately against.
We can be the voice for our citizens that have no voice, and speak
out for their equality.
