Sending taxpayer dollars overseas is also a form of welfare,,, which all governments should end

Blowing people up is actually the job of the government

Protect the country, protect the borders

You may/likely disagree on who’s getting blown up,,,,

But it’s still one of their actual few legit jobs,,reasons to exist

Hey, just because I can go fishing, hunting, and trapping, golfing, bowling, throw hay bales on the wagon, etc., etc. doesn't mean I'm not disabled. I have a bad day now and then and can't do all that stuff I just mentioned so I should be able to draw disability. I mean I can't do what I did when I was 21 so I'm disabled. LOL LOL LOL

I agree with you trapdog 1. I had a guy that worked for me and was very intelligent. He had a couple hernias and got on disability. I offered to let him be an estimator in the office or a non working foreman. Nope, he kept applying and he got his disability finally. He's not disabled in the least but yes, he can't do the things he did in his 20's. Lots of jobs, if you really want one, that a person can do if he really wants a job.

Agree completely.

As for the article, thanks for posting, Angela. It appears to be a step in the right direction.

I'm sure there are a few cases where full disability is warranted. Should be very few. At least part time work of some sort should be required to receive disability benefits.

One foolish waste of taxpayer money does not justify another. It's not SNAP benefits OR wasteful foreign aid, but BOTH that need to be stopped.

Paying SNAP benefits to those who won't work just encourages laziness and erodes the capitalist economy that made the US great. It also makes more voters dependent on government handouts and the politicians that support it, thereby ensuring those politicians get the future votes of those they have made dependent.

Charity’s(true non-government organizations) should take care of legit disability claims

As well as true “down ‘n’ out” situations

I've always thought charity for the poor or disabled should be the church's job or some similar organization. No government involvement other than distribution help when a man made or natural disaster occurs on the population as a whole.

Sevell is gay........I am lazy.....

I've said it before, if you can hunt, fish, trap, garden, travel, work around the house and post on TMan you can get a job and contribute to society

Anyone who disagrees should meet the quadriplegic greeter at our Walmart. He has the self-respect to have a job.

P.S. End all foriegn welfare too.
