    This isn’t that far off from how existing u.s. policy about health and disabilities works in practice, though. There are some patchy safety nets (deliberately underfunded and full of glaring huge holes) but basically if you are not healthy enough to work and you’re not also very very very lucky in some other ways, “just die” is basically the indirect message you get. Disabled people do not actually have equal rights.
