[QUOTE="Wheel Gun, post: 2310451, member: 19286"] Here's the problem. As the law stands, you just need a doctor that will fill out a form. The form asks for some illness and asks if the potential disabled meets any of a long list of criteria. One of those criteria is "unlikely to work". In every impoverished city/county, there's at least one doctor who will gladly testify that the poor/uneducated/obese person in his office is unlikely to work. He sees no jobs in the community and no one working, so that's easily justified. In most communities, there is one doctor who submits the vast majority of these forms. If you're a mother, Social Services signs you up for Welfare/WIC/Medicaid. If you're not, Social Services sends everyone else to this guy for disability. See, everyone gets some government money. It's cool. [/QUOTE]
