It seems pretty clear people are using disability benefits as an income safety net, perhaps while they wait to reach the regular social security eligibility age.
Also interesting the regions with the highest percentage of claims are in deep red territory, where the political climate and political agenda is strictly anti-safety net. I wonder how that will work itself out.
- devoply 10y agoThe only way the economy works itself out is jobs. If there are no jobs then the government has to do something about it. Government gets all of its money from business. So in the end you have an efficient market, where robots create everything and most of the profit that is generated from sales of items is confiscated by the government and given to people so they can buy things the robots produce.
