I understand where you are coming from.  However, if this economic 
scenario plays out into something permanently bad, laws will be changed 
whether blind people like it or not.
Laws can and are changed as society sees fit; and as needs of a time 
dictate.
So-called rights such as accessability are a product of a society of 
plenty.  If a society moves towards survival mode, these kinds of rights 
become trivial and are replaced by something else.

Just because you have a right today doesn't mean you will have it 
tomorrow.  It only exists until the next law comes down the pike.



Optasia Ministry offers a wide variety of free electronic Christian resources to
blind US residents;
Many of these are not available otherwise in free electronic format, and
some are particularly formatted for use on legacy and current portable reading devices.
Distributed on DVD and cds, details and a catalog can be found at
