Rickets, there used to be 'detention camps' all over the country for folks like you. However, some law was passed back in the 70's and most every darn nutcase (such as yourself) was released back into the community. |

Rickets, there used to be 'detention camps' all over the country for folks like you. However, some law was passed back in the 70's and most every darn nutcase (such as yourself) was released back into the community. They were closed because of lack of funds. Giving $50,000 handouts to malingerers such as you add up quickly. |

I suggest that you and M II team up, and open up a shoe shine stand together, that way, when there are no customers, at least you'll be able to pleasure yourselves, and whine about what others have and you don't. |

I worked and earned those benefits, Americans are a compassionate lot and most favor giving disability to the truly disabled who cannot work and fend for themselves. In fact, I think we should give them much more money. Its individuals like you, who are clearly able to work but are misusing the system, that are wrecking a well intentioned and noble program. And the victims of that are the truly needy - add that to your resume of accomplishments scumbag. From the Cato Institute: Facilitating Fraud: How SSDI Gives Benefits to the Able Bodied by James M. Taylor The Social Security Administration is currently handing out a flood of benefits under the Social Security Disability Insurance program to per- sons who are not disabled and thus have no legitimate reason to receive those benefits. SSDI was established as a source of income for persons who are so severely disabled that they cannot perform any meaningful work that exists in the national economy. The program, which allocates funds directly from Social Security general revenues, was never intended to be as broad and expensive as it is today. Yet current SSDI payments account for 14 percent of all Social Security distr ibutions. In 1999 alone, SSDI handed out a staggering $57 billion in disability benefits. Further, the federal government maintains dozens of programs that raise the amount handed to persons with various degrees of disability to an annual grand total of $110 billion. A review of SSDI cases and a look at SSDI sta-tistics show a clear pattern of SSA officials’ turning a blind eye to all standards and common sense when passing out benefits. For example, SSA offi-cials frequently award full SSDI benefits to persons who pursue disability discrimination claims under the Americans with Disabilities Act. However, to assert an ADA claim, a plaintiff must argue that he is fully capable of performing a desired job. How can a person be simultaneously able and unable to work? Wor se yet, in many cases SSA awards SSDI benefits to persons whose ADA claims were dismissed precisely because the per-sons were not disabled, even under the ADA’s more lenient definition of “disability.” Despite very strict SSDI eligibility standards, SSA has opened the floodgates to innumerable, profligate benefit awards. For example, SSA is currently paying a medical doctor to remain at home simply because he prefers administrative work, which he can perform with very minor difficulty, to treating patients, which he can perform with no difficulty at all. This and numerous other cases documented in this study demonstrate how persons who have very minor impair ments and who would have little or no difficulty remaining in the workforce are never theless collecting billions of dollars in SSDI benefits each year. To slow the drain of Social Security funds, policymakers must stop abuses of SSDI that are facilitated by SSA itself. |
