I must be reading a different forum to you, I don't see the 'rich vs the poor' thing and the 'them as us thing' it's the usual against the usual but just a different subject.
The way i see it is certain posters keep interjecting disability into the argument and using it as a reason not to cut welfare .Some posters need to realise that welfare arguments do not always mean that the disabled are being picked on ,in fact the whole point of welfare reform is to make it fairer on workers and make sure the money is there to support those that really need it.
