This is where many of those unemployed disappeared to. The sad thing is, most would rather work if able but can't find jobs.

Most may have liked to work, but after a few checks for doing nothing that desire will soon pass.

What;s going to happen to the able bodied who are getting disability when the powers that be finally decide to look into disability fraud?

Disability payments is not the only way that Obama has attempted to buy as many votes as he can in. He is also directing the Veterans Administration to qualify as many as possible for agent orange exposure compensation. I know a vet that qualified but only spent five days in Saigon in an air conditioned hotel while he waited to be transferred to his ship off the coast of Vietnam. He now draws $3000 per month tax free and after he dies his widow will be eligible to draw half of what he is getting for the rest of her life. The amount increases annually as does SS payments. Do we have a great country or what?

A fifty-five year old white male who has worked at the same place for the last 15 to 20 years and is at the top of his pay scale is not likely to find any but the most menial job if that, when given the boot.
But no one just “goes on disability”. A physician has to certify their disability and that is subject to challenge by the SS Administration.

If I see one more 22 year old drug addict with a “bad back” collecting full boat disability and popping out babies left and right and getting everything full-boat and PROUD OF IT, I am going to get sick.
