Why Work, Part 300

If you work for a living, these statistics will infuriate you:
"Many disability recipients admit they could work. Recipients of federal disability checks often admit that they are capable of working but cannot or will not find a job, that those closest to them tell them they should be working, and that working to get off the disability rolls is not among their goals. More baffling, most have never received significant medical treatment and not seen a doctor about their condition in the last year, even though medical problems are the official reason they don't work. Those who acknowledge they're on disability because they can't find a job say they make little effort to find one, according to a Washington Examiner analysis of federal survey results."
There's nothing baffling about it. These people are taking advantage of the system, and there's no shame, stigma, or incentive enough to make them stop.
