I have a genuine issue and to be honest, it embarrasses me to admit it. BECAUSE so many scam the system. And people like me get lumped in with them in the public eye.

You shouldn't be lumped in with the scammers. I know some folks who are like you, legitimately disabled, and I want help sent in that direction. That's what a decent society does. Of course, a decent society also puts safeguards in place to prevent fraud.

Assuming we still have a country by then, there is a very real chance I might have to look at disability some day (health issues). I am working very, very hard to prevent that from happening, but the thing about life is that the best laid plans...

What really get me though is that even the people administrating the system know what’s going on. But it goes right to the top. And we KNOW who and what that is.

All I know is that i worked every bit that I could and paid into the system. For many years. But I am not thrilled with being even an unwilling leech on the system.

But there’s not a damn thing I can do about it. Doctors are not miracle workers.
