(CNSNews.com) – The number of American workers collecting federal disability insurance benefits hit yet another record high in October, according to the Social Security Administration.
This month 8,803,335 disabled workers are collecting benefits, up from the previous record of 8,786,049 set in September.
In February 2009, the first full month after President Barack Obama took office, there were 7,469,240 workers collecting federal disability insurance. Thus, so far in Obama’s term, the number of workers collecting disability has increased by 1,334,095. That works out to a net increase of about 29,646 per month (1,334,095 divided by 45 months), or an average increase of about 975 per day (1,334,095 divided by 1,369 days).
Editor's notes:
Add 46.7 million folks on food stamps, and we have a sad a situation. Understand that Obama counts these numbers into building the middle class "from the middle out, from the bottom up." It is nothing short of "trickle down economics," but without any sense of personal responsibility.
Of the 780,000 jobs added to the economy, last month, a full 630,000 are temporary and very lowing paying jobs. Obama has no plan for adding to middle class wealth via jobs and hard work; never has he had such a plan.
And, if Romney can do no better in four years, we can and should kick his Administration back onto the streets as well.
