That has since been increased to $500 (as of 1 Jan 90). But...then you were discussing SSI and it could be that SSDI works a bit different. I'm not really sure. It's really not a fair system because I feel more disABLED persons would take a part time job if their SSI or SSDI was not affected and besides who could live on $300 a month or even $500 a month? -- Uucp: ..!{decvax,oliveb}!bunker!hcap!hnews!385!14!Ann.Stalnaker Internet: Ann.Stalnaker@f14.n385.z1.fidonet.org
