A profile of one family in Missouri, where four generations have been receiving disability checks.

"The boys were identical twins William and Dale, 10. They were the fourth generation in this family to receive federal disability checks, and the first to be declared no longer disabled and have them taken away."

Various Democrats have said that doesn't happen so you must be lying. I guess next you're going to try to convince us that it was a Democrat that shot up the ball park in Alexandria this morning, eh?

they call it the check out in Linvingston Parish. I worked at a bank branch for 2 months in walker. It's a cycle of disability checks, pain meds, pay day loans.

There are so many like this across southern Missouri (and all over rural America); fat, lazy, and entitled; always the victim; never doing anything to better themselves or their families but finding new angles to get at the government tit.

This month, reality was a $600 electricity bill that included late payments. An additional $350 for the mortgage, $45 for water, $300 for cellphones. Then $98 for cable television, $35 for Internet service, $315 for furniture bought on credit, $35 for car insurance and $60 for life insurance.


This pretty much sums up their problem. They are paying more money each month for things they don't need than they are paying for things they do need.

At one point it describes one of the "adults" furiously researching autism symptoms and any other disability label she could hang on the twins. At no point was getting a job even remotely considered a solution to their problems. Getting more government checks was the only option.

Complete, 100%, dependence on the US government: promoted by the Democratic Party and paid for by the American taxpayer.

With their free guvmit checks gone, they won't know what to do with themselves. No example to look back on.

It's amazing how raw and unsympathetic the portrait can be when it's white folk.

Disability is just another form of unemployment with a pool of doctors all too willing to certify.

I have been trying to tell people this for years. The problem is not welfare, it is social security disability

Kathy sat with a notepad that said “Live Like Your Life Depends On It” and did the math. Their monthly checks totaled $2,005 — $1,128 less than when the twins received benefits — and bills would consume all of it except $167. There wouldn’t be enough to whittle down her payday loans. Or to settle up with the school for her granddaughter’s cheerleading. Or to pay her lawyer for a divorce from her fourth husband.


So she has money for 4 divorces, her granddaughters cheerleading and cable but can't make ends meet?!
