Ah lets not mix issues here. I think there is a good argument to an insurance 
company paying some portion of a screen reader if they cover things like 
wheelchairs etc. At the risk of spinning this into an issue of politics, one is 
something you have no control over and the other you do to a larger extent. The 
point is we don't necessarily need the government paying for any of it. Now on 
the other hand, if you happen to have a flexible spending account as a benefit 
from your employer, certain adaptive technology can be paid for and reimbursed 
from your flexible spending account, which includes food for your dog guide and 
other such things. If you look at the IRS web site, you can locate information 
about this. At least in this case, you could pay for some items with pre-tax 
money.
