[nfbmi-talk] hiring the blind in state government?

[joe harcz Comcast]

This lunatic job description speaks for itself and doesn't jive with the Rehabilitation Act let alone Executive Directive 2014-1. In fact it doesn't jive with any meaningful notion of reality. For now BSBP/LARA says they have two franchises in the Vocational Rehabilitation funded so-called, mandated facility for blind entrepreneurs under PA 260 that doesn't have one blind employee who gets paid.

And now they are funding another job like this one?

Now how can they claim to be encouraging employment of people within state government when the lead federally funded Vocational rehabilitation program for the blind openly and perniciously discriminates against hiring of persons who are blind in an affirmative program for employment of blind persons?
Moreover they are double and triple dipping at the Vocational Rehab trough in the legislative office building made up of the House who passed Public Act 260 in the first place.

This is ground zero for the Orwellian double-speak and abuse of persons who are blind and otherwise disabled and is only the tip of the iceberg of the blatant misappropriation of taxpayer funds to engage in the exact opposite of what BSBP is supposed to be doing.
