Convicted Congressman Jesse Jackson Jr. (D-IL) is scheduled to receive $8,700 per month in government disability pay, as well as a partial federal pension of $45,000.
That generous $8,700 in disability comes thanks to Jacksons sudden development of a mood disorder as the federal government began looking to indict him.
Jackson, who was sentenced to 2.5 years in prison, had no history of mental illness during his prior 17 years in Congress.
Rev. Jesse Jackson has defended his sons claims of mental illness, stating to the court, This time a year ago I thought we may have lost him.

I didn’t, but ever since the clown and his cohorts have taken over the government, I have a mood disorder.....it is called the “pissed off” syndrome. It is truly affecting my mood and I want my disability.

Wha? How the hell can I be paid this much for my mood disorder?
I just deal with it. That kind of money might make it feel a lot better rather than slaving away at work!
