Exactly what I mean. People who get SSI for example are not allowed to accept money from family and friends in excess of the stipulated limit.

They are punished for wanting to become independent. A society that tells the disabled and poor you’re worth only $2000 is not a humane or a compassionate society. Heck, its not even a fiscally conservative one.

The ABLE Act seeks to change it.
