5.4 Million Join Disability Rolls Under Obama

Are we becoming a less healthy nation, creating more disabled people than ever before? I don't think so. Between a growing ability to "game the system" and a government relaxation of eligibility requirements, we find this explosion of folks on the government dole. [clipper]


"A record 5.4 million workers and their dependents have signed up to collect federal disability checks since President Obama took office, according to the latest official government data, as discouraged workers increasingly give up looking for jobs and take advantage of the federal program."
