“Another statistic that should be included are the nearly NINE MILLION former workers (under 65) on SS disability income”
IMHO this is why SS is going broke. People on SS disability who should not be there
The worst offender at promulgating these lies is ABC Radio news. Yesterday they prefaced this story about fewer jobless claims with the phrase “in another sign of an improving economy...”. Personally I think Burger King should file a lawsuit against them for cranking out so many whoppers.
Opportunistic lawyers and physicians who jump in and support some of these phony claimants are a huge problem.
This should be the first place to root out fraud and abuse.
