For over a month now, people with a disability have been unable to use NDIS funding for seeking sex worker services. Lived-experience advocates say it's a step backward.
Okay now give the statistic for how much the hookers cost the taxpayer. You seem very confident that stopping the hookers will balance the budget, so you must have the figures to back your position up.
likewise, since you’re so certain it’s penny pinching feel free to post your numbers
i support all attempts to reduce the cost of this massively overbloated free money train

Senator Jordon Steele-John, the Australian Greens spokesperson for Disability Rights and Services, has claimed that the reforms will result in the removal of crucial disability services, stating that ‘the Labor government is choosing to remove $14.4 billion in funding from the NDIS that will lead to disabled people not getting the support they need when they need it’.
Im not sure how $14.4 billion of tax payer money is penny pinching
Yeah, those disabled people should quit asking for a handout! Those quadriplegics need to get up off their comfy wheelchairs and work an honest day’s labour in a coal mine!
Actually, drag is engaged to marry a very sexy dragon. Drag has plenty of game. But then, drag has the full use of drag’s body. Pretty hard to have game from inside a wheelchair paralysed from the neck down. Stephen Hawking managed it, but he was a super genius. Disabled people shouldn’t need to be Stephen Hawking in order to be treated like a person. And when society fails to treat the disabled like people, it’s the responsibility of the government to step in. As you would know if you’d read the article, for many disabled people the sex worker is the first one to treat them like a person. Because they are a professional who is trained to deal with disabled people and not to react with disgust or pity. That experience goes far beyond sex, but because we live in a regressive society, somehow we have ended up with sex workers being the only ones trained to provide this experience.
Then again, maybe we could pay 300 an hour for them to see a psychologist with a Master’s degree instead. Would that be more economical?
Referring to drag by drag’s pronouns in a place where you’d normally use drag’s name reminds drag of HIM from the powerpuff girls. A creature with no name, so people only use HIS pronoun. Unlike HIM, drag has a name. It’s Dragon Rider.

awww they no longer get sex workers which is basically like sending them down a coal mine, i can see how that would be comparable to you
