Rep. Cresent Hardy (R-NV) said recently at a Libertarian Party event that he hoped his children would never be a drain on society like people who were disabled.
In audio published this week by the Nevada State Democratic Party, Hardy can be heard speaking to attendees at the Libertarian Political Expo in Las Vegas.
I have three children, Hardy explains. One of them is summa cum laude and two were magna cum laude. The other one, he didnt need an education. He works for Raytheon, smarter than all the rest. He works hard, he builds things that are genius. Some people have that ability.
But they all work hard. They are raising their own families, he continued. They will not be a drain on society, the best they can. Hopefully they will never have some disability that causes them to have to utilize that.
