[Nfbf-l] Social Security

[John]

Hi Sheila,
You are currently mistaken, just because a group like ACB challenges an
entity does not mean there is a law that is being violated. The ACB is
claiming that the social security administration is in violation of the Voc
Rehab Act of 1974. Isn't it interesting that they aren't using the ADA.
However, as I said, just because there is a suit does not mean anyone is
violating the law.  
So if and until ACB wins this most current and in my legal opinion frivolous
lawsuit, there is no one in violation of the Voc Rehab or any other act for
failing to provide a particular format.
In conclusion, I am blind as are many of you, who decides what is
accessible?
Cordially,
John

I do believe we are rehabilitated enough, or at least some of us, and I do 
believe that at least some of us are able to function independently without 
accessibility. However, I do believe that as an entity  providing 
information to the blind, they should have alternative communication which 
allows us to maintain our independence, and not have to depend on others to 
tell us what our check will be in the new year.
