Mad as Hell
Mad as Hell is a clever National electoral lobbying campaign designed to impact on this years Federal and State Elections.
The group is asking families and friends of people affected by Australia's inadequate disability system to pledge the following;
"We're mad as hell -
We are not going to take this anymore and there are millions of us"
"I pledge that in the next Federal and State elections, I will only vote for a political party which publically promises to transform Australia's broken, inefficient, crises-driven disability support system by:
Introducing and supporting a National Disability Insurance Scheme immediately after the productivity Commission study, due July 2011.
Ensuring people with a disability and their family or nominated representative decide the best ways to use funding received to meet their individual needs."
