I had the unhappy experience of having to go to the local Social Security office in Pittsburgh yesterday, without an appointment. Lost my card, and needed a replacement.
Among the hundred or so people who waited with me in the corral, the Caucasians were uniformly retirement age. The "blacks" and "Hispanics" - who made up about 90% of the total, averaged mid-20's.
I fear there is a disturbing trend here - one that is ignored by the MSM, possibly because it's not "news."
We have masses of people, mainly "minorities," who are learning how to game the SS disability system, in order to live a life of ease, at the expense of the American taxpayers.
I read a few months ago, that children in Puerto Rico were being given SSI because of their "disability" of not speaking English(!).
I wonder how extensive this problem is. I admit I have not done the detailed research that would be required to reach a supported conclusion, but everything I see points in the wrong direction.
Would our Government even publish this information? The bureaucrats don't mind - it provides work for them to do, and ultimately adds to the Government employment rolls.
