Check out the link at the foot of the post, it will explain more about the significance of Cram's involvement. There's also lots of Atos related posts here on Indymedia.

Cram, an athlete, has signed on as the "ambassador" of a gang of corporate benefit fraudsters known as ATOS Origin.

ATOS make their money by unfairly denying benefits to sick and disabled people. They've been thrown out of numerous US states for operating "disability-denial factories" - their core business is ensuring that people don't get the insurance payouts they're due, but they've branched out into the "welfare reform" business as it's extremely profitable.

It is sick beyond description that the rich, fit and healthy should steal from the poor, disabled and the sick like this. I hope the fucker gets run over by a bus.

Its not stealing from the poor. Welfare is money is given to the poor, not taken away.
If you want to get picky about it, people on welfare are stealing from the taxpayers.

Clearly you don't live in the real world. You should be the one run over by a bus.
Steve Cram has worked hard to get where he is - thats why he a rich.
You've done fuck all which is why you are poor. I prefer it if you got run over by a bus.

Polite


Please reconsider your actions Mr Steve Cram

Why the silence, if you are willing to go ahead and do this act, you may as well tell the world you are happy to see disabled people mistreated, because being a sponsor for ATOS is basically admitting to holding those views in my opinion.

ATOS VICTIM
