My wife is on diability.. it was a 2 year fight. She is type 1, has EDS, fiber, Neropothy and several other diabetes side effects.
There are days she can actually work for a bit.. but most she can’t. she broke her foot 2 months ago. The Dr just now says he can see some bone growth.
every 5 would be no problem for her.
I would say every 2 for people claiming “mental” disability.
Yeah.... Some people REALLY need it, others not at all, and some maybe just for awhile.
Where I think it gets crazy is people qualifying because of addictions. Being charitable, I could see a temporary disability while someone is in rehab and getting stable, but certainly not forever, unless they are just ‘too far gone’.
