Disability applications have been increasing each and every year and have done so forever.

Apply is not the same as approved. Approval is determined at the state level.

The majority of growth in disability is in the age 50-64 age bracket , an indicator of an aging population more so than anything else.

You can spin it all you want . IMHO it indicates the mindset of the nation.

No it just means we can thank GOP and Bush for their two wars which have destroyed the lives of many Americans. Over 4000 killed in the Iraq War and numerous others injured and scarred for life..

I am grateful to not have a disability and able to work.

No! Its a mindset of purposely trying not to work using some lame "BS" excuse of disability.
