Get those cripples back to work, dammit!
(You forgot the #1 way to get paid for not working, Unemployment Insurance.)

So the people I know who are on all of these programs have no jobs, so they must be lying about their incomes?
Yep. Everyone on disability is seriously injured and cannot physically work. There is no abuse with that program whatsoever!

lolwut?
If you don't have a job, you have no income, and therefore qualify. BUT, you can HAVE a job, but still have a low enough income to qualify. That is to say, just because you receive benefits from those programs doesn't mean you don't have a job, it just means you have a low income.
And you might want to reconsider who you're hanging out with.
..just sayin'.

Medicaid, Food Stamps, Welfare, and to a lesser extent Disability.

Then they pay people not to work. Which is the question I was answering.

It's a pic somewhere in Taiwan, but people are spinning it to be here in America.

That being said, you're wrong. Started over 20 years ago. Federal law
You think the date of when it started helps your case? So Dems have been using welfare programs to register voters for 20 years, not 6.

Do you REALLY think all(or even a majority) those people who were put on SSDI in the last few years are actually crippled?

Fun fact - In Alabama, when you apply for food stamps, the packet that you are to complete includes a voter registration, this started in 2008.
Doesn't seem to be having much of an impact...
