number one, obama didn't suspend the work requirement.

number two, the bush recession is what put so many on food stamps.

finally, reported as spam. very inarticulate, retarded spam.

It's not about facts or actual truth for them. It's about using a communist propaganda technique of saying something over and over again until the unwashed masses start to believe it. You know, the 47% that don't pay taxes and refuse to "pull themselves up by their bootstraps." (What the fuck century is Romney living in?)

  • An increase of 18 million people, to 46 million Americans now receiving food stamps;
  • A 122% increase in food stamp spending to an estimated $89 billion this year from $40 billion in 2008;
  • An increase of 3.6 million people receiving Social Security disability payments;
  • A 10 million person increase in the number of individuals receiving welfare, to 107 million, or more than one-third of the U.S. population;

I Blame George Washington for these bad times, if he had just let the British alone we could all be eatin fish and chips right now.

Stating a fact should not be construed as an attack.

Ok here's a fact. It takes on average 3.2 years for someone to get approved for social security disability, so it appears the increase was from people applying while BUSH was president.

That isn't a fact. The ACTUAL average wait time is 446 days, look that shit up.

Go to SS and tell them you have PTSD, you'll have disability in 12 weeks. They can't turn you down if its documented and you got treatment for it. The administration changed some of the rules and certain cases cannot be turned down. PTSD isn't the only one. This didn't happen under Bush, but I know how you guys love to blame anyone but your dear infallible demigod.

In July of 2007 the claims backlog for SSDI and SSI cases was at its highest mark ever reaching 749,224 cases. The information below should help give you an idea of how long it takes to get a decision at the hearing level. The national average in 7/07 was 528 days. As of 5/30/08 a new report was published with an update on processing times at the hearing level. The national average for 5/08 was 523 days. As of the month ending 11/27/2009 the national average processing time at the hearing level was down to 446 days. As you can see the average time it takes at hearing has improved from the 5/08 report to the 11/09 report by 77 days. It looks like the SSA new programs and increased hiring of ALJs and support staff have had a significant impact on wait times. 77 days might not seem like much improvement but when you consider the amount of overall cases goes up every year this is quite an improvement and SSA's efforts in this area should be applauded.

You're full of shit and I know it.

I have 2 patients both on disability. Patient A has stage 3 cancer, it took her 17 months to get cleared.
Patient B has advanced MD and is basically wheelchair bound. It took him almost 2 years with the help of an advocate from the MD Society to get cleared. Both were initially denied and had to appeal.

It took my sister-in-law three years. She was turned down twice. She finally hired a lawyer (that took 1/3 of her settlement) and it went through. Oh and she gets 400 bucks a month. We had to split up the children and are raising them in different homes.

I don't suppose you ever considered that your patients weren't average have you?

I know a gal who got disability after 120 days, what you got to say about that? She was never denied either.

What a shame where it takes a fucking lawyer to get help for a system that you pay in to. Workmans comp is the same way. Both sides can take blame on this one. It take many years to fine tune a fucked up system.

Look it up yourself. It's due to O'Bama's administration that wait times have decreased.
