So many conservatives rail against entitlement programs, but the truth is far from what they want you to believe.
First, let's look at some numbers. Did you know that 8x as many adults receive disability benefits compared to welfare? Over 10 million adults receive disability benefits in America, while just over 1 million are on welfare. Few people ever lose their disability benefits, so benefits are paid out until someone reaches retirement age. There's no time limit other than age. Less than 20% of welfare recipients are still receiving welfare after 5 years, and over 30% of them are on it for a year or less.
Also, did you know that lawyers are actually paid to get people onto disability?
People should stop worrying so much about welfare and start looking at disability recipients. After all, I can name a lot of people on disability. I don't know anyone receiving welfare!
