Pretty cool.
Many sit home and collect green government checks for doing nothiong...meanwhile, Freia David born with Down syndrome gets up and goes to work.
...and has done so for 32 years!
I’ve seen her there-—I had no idea she had worked there that long.
Good for her.

Pretty cool.
Until fairly recent times (the early 1980s), the life expectancy of one with Down's Syndrome was about 25 years and they were typically institutionalized or kept at home.
That life span has more than doubled due to the trend of integrating them into our society and having them be contributors to society. That is a good thing!
Who’s left minding the store?
I don’t think she’ll be receiving nearly 85% of her wages for life, with multiple opulent pensions and top shelf medical benefits like those in D.C. routinely get.
Too bad too because she deserves it more than ANY of them.
Heartwarming story.
I know many here don’t care for George Will but he hasn’t written some truly wonderful pieces about his son who has Down’s.
PING! to a really great lady.
Down syndrome folks make some of the best workers. Once they learn something they never forget it and they only do it one way, the right way. I don’t even think they are capable of “cutting corners”.
In a just society, everyone has value.
Liberals love children with Downs syndrome. Then they can wear their “I Had An Abortion” t-shirt with pride.
