In UK, nearly 900,000 leave disability rolls rather than face needs test. “The 878,300 who decided not to have an official assessment of whether they were fit for work was more than a third of the total number of people claiming sickness-related benefits. …some claimants cited conditions such as ‘blisters’, ‘sprains and strains’ and ‘acne’ as preventing them from having a job.” Miracle cure!

Testing and checking up on anyone getting disability payments is long overdue in this country. I live in a county with less than 2000 residents and it is amazing to me how many cannot work because of some imagined "disability", mainly so-called back injuries.
In the meantime, me and thousands of other veterans with legitimate claims are waiting a year or more for the VA to process our claims.
I wonder if they can claim to be a "victim of theft" because Corporate Greed stole their gold.
If you worked as hard at a job as you do at being a lazy asshole, you'd be rich.
Work to Crowley is a dirty word....To him that's almost like calling him an MF'er......
I'd have lots of fiat paper, but I wouldn't be rich. Corporate Greed stole all the real money.
We should test that out in Florida and see how well it works here. After all, Obama keeps trying to model our healthcare system after them, why not try this awesome new miracle cure for the disabled?
I bet Kalifornia would loose a few million disabled who would be cured almost by a miracle. Kalifornia is the state that invented the Sick, lame and lazy list, the ones that work get a job at the Capital.
