[quote=Anonymous]This depends entirely in how you define words like disability, help, and supports. Does Meals on Wheels count? How about adaptive technology in apartments that convert audio fire alarms to visual for dead people? What about people that can do fine alone if there is infrastructure such as reliable public transport or at least an Uber or taxi service, but not otherwise? How about people that aren't safe to cook on a has it electric stove but can manage on their own with a microwave and a good refrigerator? Electricity? Running water? About 30-40% of people living on the Navajo Nation reservation don't have these, bit could most people survive and thrive long term without those supports and assistances to make life easier? It sounds like a simple question, but it really requires a lot of unpacking.[/quote]
