The cartoon leaves out the “body abuse” of male homosexual acts, leading to debilitating contagious disease.
You know that this will be a “favored” condition that will automatically receive approval for treatment from IPAB.
That cartoon is wrong in some ways. Fat, alcoholic smokers who are rich pay for themselves, as they should.
The article is dead on and points out our biggest challenge by far in this country. Everyone is looking for a government check. Everyone wants a handout. I do charity work and I can’t tell you how worried I am when I see an entire generation of young people — black and white — whose main goal is to see how many government checks they can get. Mainly young girls who get pregnant and start collecting. Then one finds out about another check and the others try to sign up.
Disability too. Everything is a disability these days — if you simply don’t get out of bed or sit around the house, you are depressed. And I’m not just talking out of my hat. That is what may qualify you under the SSI and state disability definitions. Social Security administrative law judges have awarded disability on these types of criteria.
It is what is going to destroy our society.
