My SSA Claim

I wrote a piece on Medium about my attempt to file a Social Security disability claim for my chronic migraines, which had caused me to retire early.

Well, long and short, the appeal went now where fast.

We’ve designed our social security system in the U.S. as poverty relief. Not a true system to provide financial security to all when needed.

It’s no wonder for years conservatives have been wanting to eliminate bits and pieces of it. Seeing the program nothing more than like all other poverty handout programs.
