Quacking for Government Money

Post by Irrev-Black »

This beggars belief!
In a sermon at Universal Medicine's multimillion-dollar conference centre in northern New South Wales in 2017, Serge Benhayon thanked someone on stage for joining him with her "beautiful team".

Tanya Curtis was the owner of Fabic, a behaviour therapy clinic on the Gold Coast that treated children with disabilities.

As she and four of her staff took turns reading his doctrines aloud, Mr Benhayon declared there were beliefs that the "rest of the world are going to hate you for".

"You're saying things that nobody wants to hear," Mr Benhayon said.

"You're talking about disabilities being part of karma."

Tanya Curtis didn't bat an eyelid.

She and her staff were followers of the self-styled alternative health group founded by Mr Benhayon, who claimed children with autism and Down syndrome were in past lives dictators, corrupt generals and corrupt politicians.

Oh for fucks sake! Ableist bullshit like this boils my blood, and they're NDIS parasites too!

If the government wants to reduce the cost of the NDIS all it has to do is remove it from the greedy fingers of private enterprise, run it themselves. They'd save billions.

The only thing that has made me happy re NDIS lately was Bill Shorten on Q&A saying he is not going to cap NDIS spending by limiting recipients but by going after the tens of millions ripped off by dodgy parasite providers.. Well not in those exact words, but very much to that effect.

Sadly he wasn't going as far as they should (and as you suggested)..
