I’m glad to see some others disagreeing with Barone’s line about this abuse being a “man thing”. I have seen at least as many women who are gaming the disability system.

You have to have worked to collect Social Security Disability too

Not true, look up the SSI-SSP program.

S.S.S. and Social Security Disability are two totally different things.

True- You must have paid in to S.S.D.I. to collect, you need never have paid in a cent to collect S.S.I.

Women are as big of beneficiaries of Affirmative Action as minorites are. Environmentalists killed manufacturing, among other male oriented occupations, such as construction of same facilites.

Lets see, it’s the feminist’s fault that men won’t work, because they pushed them. Or something. The feminists disabled you...

About a year ago...I went back home to Alabama for a week. My brother took time out to identify the various locals on disability. He ran through about fifteen names. After a while, with questions, I came to realize that all of them carrying on various hobbies or part-time jobs where the disability business doesn’t affect them at all. There’s one local guy who has been disabled since his mid-20s (he started out in the late 1970s)...and still collects it today, while doing various part-time jobs on the side.
