That's not true for all recipients.Yes,recipients of the original Social Security...have money taken from your check for 40-50 years and then collect at 65-70...have earned what they get.

I just recently qualified for the original Social Security and Medicare.Twice in the last year or so I've gone to the SS office with a question.On both occasions the waiting room was mobbed and I was *by far* the oldest person in the room.Today's Social Security has been amended to a degree where it's become,to a substantial degree,another form of welfare...another way for the nation's idle parasites and wetbacks to get a free paycheck.

SS disability was handed out like cheap candy during the bongo years as a means of PERMANENT welfare.
