[nfbmi-talk] simple questions more on can connect

[joe harcz Comcast]

Yes and when it comes to other relevent data like BEP set asides and 
successful VR closures there actually is income for the agency involved 
which does give it more funding from RSA and is considerred a match.

So no matter how much it cares it is in the self-interest of the bureauracy 
to actually engage in its primary mission which is substantial gainful 
employment of blind people.

Moreover, once again this is supposed to be data driven, but in Michigan we 
and I don't even get the state plan supplement?

And we don't even get basic meeting minutes?

Frankly each and everyone of us should post to the RSA monitoring on these 
issues and on our own issues individually.

A true and thorough monitoring is needed here and with consequences for the 
hacks who have exploited not just the VR system, but also we citizens and 
consumers.

Things are very broken, corrupted and abusive here in Michigan as we all 
know.

Now there is an opportunity for one and all to expose this stuff with an eye 
on reform to RSA itself and to hold them accountable as well, for ensureing 
that our VR agencies do actually fulfill their federally funded mission.
