Poll: Should winz approve silver amalgalm removal to reverse my m.s.?

Sandy from Kamo

Have started a give a little page as i had forgotten my neighbourly password and that polls can be done on here. I get a fair whack of money from winz every week to pay for food as medicine and natural health suppliments to slow my multiple sclerosis. I have found out that mercury leaching into my body is causing my illness. Winz kamo are refusing to pay for the remedial dental work to possibly completely reverse my illness (1 in 4 experience full remission) with the excuse "u dont have enough money available to borrow" Winz beneficiaries can borrow upto $1500 at any 1 time. I have borrowed most of it for glasses, dental, to move, buy a bed etc. The point im making is, if you know me, i have a brain. I could be a good earner and no longer on a benefit. They are quibbling about 2 & a half grand vs me being on a beni for another 40 years. In various stages of munted. So thats my question : spend a bit more now to save my life, cure my chronic fatigue and barely working immunity or not remove the silver fillings & keep me existing. On the tax payer. For a very long time.
