    Its seems to be affecting my sleep. I read that caffiene can contribute to belly fat and type 2 diabetes. I want to see what its like to not be physically dependent on it. I didnt start drinking coffee until working a 3rd shift job

    Is the Poverty Rate Higher For Deaf People Than General Population?

    Is the Poverty Rate Higher For Deaf People Than General Population?

    wow, there appears to be a lot of resentment towards one another in the deaf community. I can see how deaf people get discouraged and take ssi. If its between a crappy job like dishwasher vs ssi, can you blame them? Most menial labor jobs dont provide any benefits.
