I cannot believe the number of disability folks I see at my work. One 19 yr old fella repeatedly denied he had any medical problems. When I followed up w/ the question “Why are you on Medicare?” he was stunned. Then he said he had a gunshot wound to the leg when he was 13 yrs old. He no longer had a medical problem — he even knew it & repeatedly denied any medical problems. But now he is on permanent medical disability.

Unfortunately, I think the Social Security judges who evaluate people’s claims have a list of acceptable diseases/donditions which qualify the qualify for disability. The easy way is for the judges to stamp their approval for disability — that way they get better approval ratings. Perhaps this is typical govt employee? Tired & wants to get home from work?

ONE of the questions on the Form that asks "RACE" should be removed.

If you check "Black", "Hispanic", and also check "not working", you go to the top of the stack for Approvals.

Whites cannot claim they were denied because of their "Race", whereas, there's always Discrimination Claims for the non-whites if they're denied.

How many inner-city tribal parasites do you think are collecting EBT's, Food Stamps, Section 8 housing, WIC, Medicaid Coverage, and ALSO get SSDI funds?????

Social Security judges are an independent agency (Office of Disability Adjudication and Review). They are not subject to performance reviews by Social Security, nor are they under any pressure to rule one way or another.
