    Or you just don’t understand the verbiage.

    Which countries? I bet if we looked through there would be limitations.

      I literally moved to a different country and lived there for a decade. I think I would have noticed while I was filling all the forms. I talked to no doctors, I answered no questions and nobody ever brought it up. The first time I got a physical after moving it was the yearly checkup at work.

      And I’ve worked with migrants here as well. Hell, I’ve hired migrants. In one case we messed up the paperwork and had to start over. Not once did we check for any disability exemption of any kind.

      And no, I’m not telling you my life history just because you’re too conservative to assume that countries don’t just issue blanket bans for sick people to be immigrants, go google it or something, do some research before telling other people on the Internet how the world works.

        What countries? You can’t prove your claim without anyone being able to verify it.

        Make excuses, but you need to provide the countries or your claims are quite frankly bullshit and not valid.

        We don’t need a life story lmfao, two countries. Thats it.

        And why are you saying I’m conservative? Because I’m calling out your bullshit claims? lol good one dude.

          Because you are acting like a baseline of inhumanity is the norm and refusing to accept the economics of not being a complete dick could be sustainable, which is a pretty fundamentally conservative stance.

          I’m still not telling you where I live because I am not an idiot, but what I can do is google it for you:

          In most cases, disabled people can move wherever abled people can. Kristine Thorndyke of TEFLHero confirms that there’s no visa barrier there for disabilities. Panama is the same. Countries with universal healthcare will still extend coverage, though waiting periods and supplemental insurance may apply. In countries like Germany, where health insurance is mandatory, you’ll find private insurers to fill in gaps on preexisting conditions. Others, like Costa Rica, extend healthcare coverage for all at one nominal rate. Brazil covers medical costs for all residents for free.

          There, go be weird somewhere else.

            To get a visa in Panama you need to have X amount of income…. Thats the restriction on disability or being able to support yourself….

            As I said, different verbiage, same end result.

            Bury your head all you want.

              Same amount whether you’re disabled or not, so no, not a “restriction on disability” at all.

              Keep going down that list, though, you’ll figure it out. Just don’t feel the need to post updates.

                If you’re disabled and can’t work, you wouldn’t have an income. These places will give you money to support you if you can’t work.

                If you have income, you pay taxes when you spend that money, you’re paying for your burden………

                It’s so simple, yet you miss this? Come on. You should insult me some more, show how little you understand of the world……

                  No, if you don’t have a job or means to support yourself, you are cut off from migrating to most places, regardless of your disability status. Being disabled also doesn’t mean you can’t work or have an income.

                  If you can legally move to a place as an person without disabilities, being disabled in itself will not be a blocker (apparently only in some places), as long as you meet all other requirements, which is what the meme above is about. There is a very, very wide gap between offering to take care of foreign dependents sight unseen and actively excluding disabled people because they are a “burden”. As in, only one of those is an extremely dickish, borderline eugenic stance, the other is entirely run of the mill red tape.

                  As in, I migrated to another country and nobody checked my disability status, but they sure as hell checked that I had a job. Like I said in the first place.

                  And even then, there are countries that will provide health care universally as a recognized human right, including undocumented migrants, even if they still require a job or income to allow visa access or permanent residency. Like I said in the first place.

                  I’m running out of ways to ask you to be weird about this somewhere I can’t see you.

                    Huh, it’s almost like these restrictions are for ones that can’t work and provide excessive support to those who can’t work. Like autism for example, that takes the caregiver out of being a productive citizen too.

                    And an income limitation is exactly that, discrimination…. If there wasn’t an income limitation, anyone from like Uganda can come in and take advantage. You’re the heartless conservative now for limiting them.

                    See how you’ve made this arbitrary line yourself that’s acceptable…? Income limitation, disability limitation, why is one okay and not the other….? That’s hypocrisy you conservative….

                    You call me weird and conservative, yet those are things you’ve now shown yourself since we found your line, funny how that works doesn’t it? You can’t even see how simple and easy and discriminatory an income limitation is. It limits people with disabilities most since they have issues working and making money…. Fucking lol.
