Taxpayers will pay for hooker for disabled man

A story in the U.K. Daily Mail shows where a policy of unlimited government must eventually lead:

A 21-year-old man with learning disabilities has been granted taxpayers' money to fly to Amsterdam and have sex with a prostitute.

His social worker says sex is a 'human right' for the unnamed individual - described as a frustrated virgin.

His trip to a brothel in the Dutch capital's red light district next month is being funded through a £520 million [$750 million] scheme introduced by the last government to empower those with disabilities.

They are given a personal budget and can choose what services this is spent on.

The man's social worker...said his client was an 'angry, frustrated and anxious young man' who had a need for sex. 'He's having a holiday,' he said.

'He has been to two sexual health and sexual awareness courses and basically wants to try it.

'The girls in Amsterdam are far more protected than those on UK streets. Let him have some fun - I'd want to.

'Wouldn't you prefer that we can control this, guide him, educate him, support him to understand the process and ultimately end up satisfying his needs in a secure, licensed place where his happiness and growth as a person is the most important thing?

'Refusing to offer him this service would be a violation of his human rights.'

About this point I was looking for Iowahawk's name at the bottom. Honestly, this is so absurd it's almost hard to believe it's real.

Don't get me wrong--I'm delighted with the disabled guy getting together with a Dutch gal. I'm just not convinced that the taxpayers have any obligation to pay for this wonderful event.

And I love the gubmint social-worker's lunatic conclusion that "'Refusing to offer him this service would be a violation of his human rights."

Of course the GSW's artful phrase "refusing to offer" really means "If you taxpayers don't pay for this, you're violating his rights."

So...ya think this kind of nuttiness is just the goofy British system, eh? Think again, cupcake: Right here at home the liberal nutters have unilaterally ruled that taxpayers must pay for and provide Viagra to prison inmates. Yep. So basically we're one millimeter from having to pay to fly inmates to Vegas and furnish them with hookers.

After all, social workers are now saying it's a basic human right.
