****The program pays cash benefits to adults under age 66 who have worked in the past but are determined to be currently unable to perform “substantial” work. The CBO says that in 2009, the program paid benefits to nearly 8 million disabled beneficiaries and also two million beneficiaries’ spouses and children.****
UNSUSTAINABLE and unconscionable. By taxing producers for this underfunded entitlement, the Federal Government has enslaved every working man and woman.
You don’t have to have ever worked to receive SSDI. It is a federal welfare program....nothing more, nothing less.
