Do you want to calculate how much your disabled child costs us healthy families next? It would be "literally correct" too.

Do you want to calculate how much your disabled child costs us healthy families next? It would be "literally correct" too.
- arcticfox 1y agoAn enormous amount, unfortunately for everyone? As it should, in a healthy society. I think you misread my politics because I think attacking RFK over this point is stupid, counterproductive, and condescending. He is going to cause harm a million ways but this is not it. He is obviously not talking about the English professor who has had a very successful life. The author is trying to do a "well actually" here and missing the entire point, as well as being literally wrong when you read the words. So even a generous, pedantic angle is stupid. For the record, I align completely with this liberal commentary in the NYT this week, that is 10x more eloquent than I am: https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/25/opinion/autism-rfk-parent-child.html?unlocked_article_code=1.C08.hWX3.K0XZkxDcQ86Y&smid=url-share https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/25/opinion/autism-rfk-parent...
