i read a article in my local newspaper this morning about how the social security disibilty system is being overloaded.people who can't find jobs and are desperate for money are overloading the system with new applications.unfortunatly,social security disibility doesn't work like unemployment benefits.you have to qualify,and it's a long drawn out process with many denials and appeals that could take years to win a approval.people who are suffering in this economy don't have time for that process and trying to get social security disibility benefits is their last resort.
