Disabled workers paying the price

Matthew Davis from Perth, who is also on DSP has written an excellent article.

Disabled workers paying the price: "What PM John Howard’s government should be doing is increasing the DSP to a rate that reflects the needs and aspirations of some of Australia’s most vulnerable people. The maximum rate for the DSP is variable from a base of about $180 per week, which many understand as below the poverty line, even before the cut-backs."
