America Needs Intellect - Exclusion is not the Answer

It is my firm belief that many employers regard individuals with disabilities with little to no respect. Amazingly, even women who bear the workforce of the world are excluded from opportunities based on just simply choosing to have a child and family life. It is imperative that we do not continue down this path if we are to progress as a society. Physical disability or a mental disorder should not exclude individuals from viable opportunities when conditions can be treated. Physical or mental illnesses do not necessarily amount to intellectual difficiency. Trust me when I say that we need all the intellect we can get in our workforce and our current recession should be proof enough that many of our big corporations and agencies are lacking of that. I hope we can move beyond the stigmatization of individuals based on simple labels and focus more on their capabilities.
