NDIS is spending a disproportionate amount of resources on a group of people.

These people do need assistance and compassion but is a 2 way street.

The idea that we can spend enough money on someone with a disability so that they can live a comparable life will be ruinous. Need a better way. This is to open to rorting and will just be another gravy train for some to aim at.

To meet the NDIS disability rules you need to have an impairment or condition that is likely to be permanent (lifelong) and that stops you from doing everyday things by yourself.
The following questions may help you decide if your answer is ‘yes’.
Do you usually need support from a person or assistive equipment so you can:

understand and be understood by other people?

make and keep friends and cope with feelings and emotions?

understand, remember and learn new things?

get out of bed and move around the home and outside the home?

take a bath or shower, dress and eat?

do daily jobs, handle money and make decisions?

90% of the people I know can meet some of those criteria.

People who need support most probably have been getting it from a variety of charitable organisations/relatives/friends etc. Will many of those organisations/people cease to be under the NDIS or will they demand compensation? The death of free help.
