Social Security Disability Benefits to end in 2017

MSNBC reports that at the current rate, Social Security Disability benefit funds will end in 2017. Congress needs to get busy. Also, more people have been applying for the benefits, since it seems that the disabled are the first to go from jobs when it's firing time (!).

Here are practical approaches:

1) For new Stimulus or any Federal and State anything,even for the privilege of paying taxes, insure that a certain percentage of disabled people are hired.

2) If one disabled person can't do the job completely, hire another person to help. While you're at it, cut full time to 20 hours a week, at the same pay for 40 hours, and hire another person for the other 20. That should contribute to end unemployment.

No joke.
