A lot of people here flame welfare recipients, I’m yes, testy about it since I dislike being dependent. SSD is different, but a lot of people on here tend to get hostile towards people who are on it.
It is easy for some to criticize others that are doing what they imagine they wouldn't do. But if they needed the money when their time comes, they would thankfully take the money. My wife and I have retirement incomes but our SS checks help make retirement a little easier. We are not embarrassed or shamed for taking what we paid for our entire adult lives and are entitled to.
