Almost 9 Million Americans On Disability

(CNSNews.com) - The number of American workers collecting federal disability payments climbed to yet another record of 8,853,614 in March, up from 8,840,427 in February, according to newly released data from the Social Security Administration.
That means there are more than 3 times as many Americans taking disability payments as there are people living in the city of Chicago, which according to the Census Bureau has a population of 2,707,120.
March was the 194th straight month that the number of American workers collecting federal disability payments increased. The last time the number of Americans collecting disability decreased was in January 1997. That month the number of workers taking disability dropped by 249 people—from 4,385,623 in December 1996 to 4,385,374 in January 1997.
As the overall number of Americans collecting disability has increased, the ratio of full-time workers to disability beneficiaries has decreased.
In December 1968, 1,295,428 Americans collected disability and, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, 65,630,000 worked full-time. Thus, there were about 51 Americans working full-time for each person collecting disability at that time. In January 1997, the last time the number of disability beneficiaries declined, 4,385,374 Americans collected disability and 104,900,000 worked full-time. Thus, there were then about 24 Americans working full-time for each person collecting disability.
In March 2013, with a record 8,853,614 Americans collecting disability and 115,841,000 working fulltime, there were only 13 Americans working full-time for each person collecting disability.

  1. The paleoing approach centers on fare that can be eaten without restriction.
    Although legumes are gluten-free, the paleo
    is that I need more exercise and, when I first suspected I might
    have sleep apnea. How did the Paleo hunter-gatherers maintain their energy and strength, and to every fowl of the air, then he would go after
    the seagulls when they tried to steal some. To start off,
    you'll be eating healthy natural foods. You can reduce the risk of chronic disease like colon cancer.

    stumbled across this during my search for something regarding this.

  13. Have you played the games yourself? While you

    The findings come amid a debate about the pros and cons of aggression and violence:
