Thank You!
This is my point exactly. SSA does not consider that the disabled can not find work. The local Department of Health and Human Resources should be contacted by SSA to decide whether employment in an easy or doable job is possible when SSA decides a claim. And know I don't mean a person should move away from their home to file for disability. If you live in a big city where the odds of finding a job are favorable, then you shouldn't move to a rural area and file because of that fact. There are ways to make something like happen but hotter heads must prevail.
