Hello Sean,
DD>> And of course prices are going to go up to cover those wage increases.
DD>> I tell people at my work who complain about prices "Nothing goes down
DD>> any more except the left-front tire on your car." Wgich gets a nod and
DD>> a chuckle for the most part. And once in a great while a "political"
DD>> diatribe.
SD> It's to where if I decide to work part-time after my bad foot is replaced
SD> with a bionic one <G>, I'll just go to the local Taco Bell. The manager has
SD> told me he'd hire me on the spot and let me work up to the limit that Social
SD> Insecurity allows.
There are no work limits in regards to social security.

But if you do return to work, it will be held against you.
Even though the law says work has nothing to do with it.
What a fucking joke.
You see, it is all about "substantial gainful activity" - nothing
about work itself. Can you take care of yourself? Can you get along
with others? Can you cook your own meals? Can you do your own laundry?
That sort of thing. Has absolutely nothing to do with work, whether
for others or being self-employed.
But if you do return to work, it will be held against you.
As explained in SSA's Red Book.
Even for those who are permanently disabled. According to the SSA.
The definition of disability is different under the ADA.
That definition was written by Congress.
But the ADA does not dish out any benefits to anyone. So their
definition does not count.
The rest of the world got rid of their healthcare for profit systems
long ago. Time for this country to do the same.
Federal law defines disability as "the inability to engage in
any substantial gainful activity (SGA) by reason of any medically
determinable physical or mental impairment" - which is what the
social security must abide by.
However, there are ways to cheat or stack the deck ... such as
conning folks who are permanently disabled to return to work. So
do it baby, do it! Throw away your benefits so you can continue
working like a slave! And pay dearly for your meds and hospital
care ...
SD> I mean it's getting to where I would make more as a bus driver than in IT
SD> (though both jobs would be stressful). At least with TB, I can leave my
SD> work at work.
I know a C1/C2 quad who could move only his tongue who taught guitar
lessons from his nursing home. He did so even while missing one arm,
which included his playing hand, that was amputated. So please, do
not give me that crap that you are disabled and/or mobility impaired.
Social Security Administration could not take away his benefits
because federal law guaranteed his benefits - as he was permanently
disabled. Regardless of amount of income he made from teaching kids
how to play guitar.
For Life,
Lee
