As someone with autism, I think RFK is onto something here. We should abolish taxes for people 'suffering' with this condition.

'These children will never pay taxes' Notice that's the first thing he said! He doesn't care about the children he cares about the money. Surprise, Surprise.

I love that fact that RFK started with saying "these are kids that will never pay taxes or hold a job." Really shows what his priorities lie

You know what kids will never play baseball, write a poem, or go on a date? The kids DYING from measles. Actually dying. Makes me sick that this man is in charge of healthcare.

My little brother was recently diagnosed with autism as teen. He is fully capable of holding a job, paying taxes, and having a life. Autism is not a disease, but it is a developmental difference. This is so disturbing to hear from someone who is in charge of public health.

Reducing children to a ‘resource’ rather than acknowledging their humanity is so gross.
