Private charities are pretty good at separating real victims from malingerers. But government is not. Its one-size-fits-all rules encourage people to act like victims.
....and that is why DUmmies don't want private charities administering such programs.....the DUmmies wouldn't be able to scam them.
Bah humbug Johnny, it is not the government to blame for attempting to help out, it is the responsibility of those individuals that see a loop hole to allow them to live and enjoy life without having to work. Yet they are able to go hiking, fishing, hunting, bowling, and in some cases caught playing basketball.
I found out that when injured, one with full insurance cannot be made to undergo medical treatment. They can sit back , collect payments from where ever and hope the ailment will go away.---------Strange as it seems but sometimes just bed rest for a few months is needed to recover naturally.
At times diagnoses of a problem are way off, easy to manipulate the doctors into making recommending no work for an indefinite time.
It is the individual that is at fault, they have a drug problem or some other self inflicted problem, made crappy decisions in life and now expect us to pay for their lives as they want them to be.
God helps those that help themselves, I am willing to pay taxes to support those that are in dire need of medical help, but really get pissed at those that refuse to get help when a solution is there for them.
Woman at work fell a couple times at work, busted up her hip and was told she had to loose 50-60 pounds in order to work. She joined Weight Watchers but for some reason gained another 20 pounds. She received 6 months of short term disability and a full year of long time disability. A (to me) young woman, 45 perhaps went onto government disability, last time I saw her was at the beach playing volleyball.
