End welfare and see how many able bodied people are suddenly able to find work.

Those who enable the dependent class have found a new place to shunt them - onto Social Security Disability.

Dependent ones are bankrupting the SS system for the elderly who paid into it, undermining it for those who really are disabled, and destroying it for those who are currently paying into it.

I knew a woman in California who got SSI because she said that working gave her a headache.

Very true. There is a couple living next to my in-laws in their 40’s with two children. They haven’t worked in 10 years due to disabilities and proudly tell everyone they are on social security disability. His muscle condition prevents him from holding a job but he is able to climb up on his roof, tend a garden, and ride a tractor.
