the moment you touch the shield and get the captain america title no matter for how long, steve’s urge to protect bucky attaches to you like a lifelong curse
If by changing world you mean thinly veiled eugenics then you sure are succeeding. Equally, if our taxes stopped going towards your expenses you would save more money than the cuts for disability benefits. All you want to do is make yourselves richer whilst disabled people suffer
me in the middle of the night: why did he say 16 if he has known bucky since he was a little kid, why is 16 so special. bucky is one year older than steve. why is one of his trigger words is 17

But not the disabled right? We are consistently penalised in a system you promised you would make better for us. But once again we take the hit because you can’t be arsed to rub some brain cells together and think where cuts and savings can be made instead
You say this whilst taking away money from those with disabilities. You do absolutely nothing to support those to get into work, or even make it so those who have jobs are able to stay in it as there’s no job security for disabled workers. This is thinly vailed eugenics. Fuck off
We inherited a fundamentally broken welfare system from the previous government.
It does not work for the people it is supposed to support, businesses who need workers or taxpayers who foot the bill.
This government will always protect the most severely disabled people to live with dignity. But we’re not prepared to stand back and do nothing while millions of people — especially young people — who have potential to work and live independent lives, instead become trapped out of work and abandoned by the system. It would be morally bankrupt to let their life chances waste away.
When I talk about opportunity for all, I mean it.
That’s why we are bringing forward the biggest changes to the welfare system in a generation and improving support for those who need it.
Ensuring those who can work do work is not only right, but it will also improve living standards and drive growth, the number one priority in our Plan for Change.
