I wish that were true but you know and I know people who are willing
to sit on their butts and draw ssi and ssa dib and live with mommy
and daddy or in their low income apartment and play with their tape
recorders and talkingbooks.  many of us want to work but many don't
if they can get a hand out.  they are hypocrits they criticize the
way things are but do nothing to better their lot in life.  also what
they are forgetting is not everyone has social security credits I
have one quarter to my name so I can never draw dib because the radio
jobs I worked on paid me under the table.  hell at age 19 who thought
about social security.
