A new chart set to be released by the Republican side of the Senate Budget Committee details an alarming fact: In the last three months, more Americans have joined disability than have found a job:
As the chart shows, between April-June 2012, an estimated 246,000 Americans were added to Social Security’s disability insurance program. In that same time period, only 225,000 American jobs were created.
These alarming numbers, though, are part of a wider trend, as another chart, also set to be released later today, from the Republican side of the Senate Budget Committee shows:

How can this be? It is my understanding that it can take 2 or more years to be found to be disabled. First, you have to apply and most times are automatically turned down. Then you hire a representative and keep fighting for it.
Also, you need to have enough time spent in the workforce to qualify.
Is it that much easier to get accepted now? Alcoholism, drug use, hangnail?
More than likely, all you have to be is, Black, Illegal, Democrat, or anyone who is known to be in agreement with this liar, thief, Disease, Mu SLIME in office!!! Things are not done the LEGAL way anymore, they are done the OVIMIT WAY! He is a LAW UNTO HIMSELF! He is King Turd, of Shit Mountian!!!!!!! And there are plenty of Little Turds who follow the Head Turd in any direction he chooses, or COMMANDS! I would bet any amount of money, (if I had any) that this trend of handing out aid and benifits is solely because of the ILLEGAL BOON IN OFFICE AND HIS ILLEGAL BEHAVIOR! Anything, ANYTHING to further break our economy is what this THING IN OFFICE WILL DO, down to BREAKING THE BANK OF SOCIAL SECURITY! And I wonder, just how many of those who are recieving these benifits, actually PAID INTO IT??
I can tell you that most of the disabled applying and receiving now are not really disabled. Hence the video of the moron who tried to go up an escalator in a wheel chair. Every building that has an escalator is federally mandated to have an elevator for those who need to use a wheel chair. Shortly after the wheel chair topples off the escalator, the woman who tried this trick, was seen walking away. DID SHE REALLY NEED THE WHEELCHAIR? Somehow I doubt it, but I'm willing to bet she was a Demonrat!
This just the way the president wants it. He wants us all on the government dole. What he doesn't understand is if that happens who will pay the bill. Socialism works only until you run out of other peoples money/
