That's not the issue here though. The issue is that it made you have to re-live your terrible experience trying to file for disability. There are definitely people out there on disability who don't need it, but because of how difficult the process is, I would think that would make the number smaller (hopefully). I am appalled that it was so difficult for you to get your disability status, when obviously you need it. You can't do anything about these people though even if they are all a bunch of fakers, so try not to let it stress you out too much!

I can't even imagine what this is like.<br /><br />The mess that is caused because of dishonesty and by poor governance is tragic beyond tragic.<br /><br />Speaking of your dad being a nice guy and taking you to Troy, he brought a little light to our lives on Saturday. He is really something!Franhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07181529277715646835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3684138792681660769.post-7898709870903131602011-04-04T16:32:18.331-07:002011-04-04T16:32:18.331-07:00I know we've touched on this subject briefly a...I know we've touched on this subject briefly a couple of times , but never in any depth .<br /> The hard truth is , if there's something to be "had" out there , there is a sizable part of society that will always find a way to "work" the system and gain from it . In doing so , they take away from the folks who truely need it , and depend on it to sustain themselfs !The systems on all these agencies are so full of fraud , that it creates the mountain of paperwork , and reapplying you descibe , including Welfare , Compensation , VA , all government run agencies that are not properly funded to have the neccecary overseers to do the background work ,and initial research on the applicant before they ever reach the counter !<br />This would put an end to the fraud , and place the robbers and stealers in jail !<br />Once again ,our government, who we trust to serve us and protect us , lacks woefully in it's duty to provide the services that we depend on !<br />We do have a duty to preform , we must go to the ballot box , research who we vote for , be sure they are for refore of the systems , and also to be vocal . Let yourself be heard , work for your change, and if you "clearly know for sure" of a case of fraud....... report it . <br />And by all means never do what they hope you'll do ...
