"No, you shouldn't accept that promotion and pay raise, because then you'll make too much to qualify for assistance, the business doesn't provide health insurance, and the raise isn't nearly enough to pay for the long-term care your condition requires."

I remember these issues well. In the late seventies, I taught assembly programming at the Center for Independent Living in Berkeley. We were constantly confronted with such issues often having to advise students to offer to work as independents as companies were reluctant to hire them because of the cost to their health plans. Today, with many fewer health plans it is clearly even worse.
