esquilax posted:Any occupation (using the technical disability insurance definition) is the definition that SSDI actually literally uses. You are only supposed to be on SSDI if you are unable to perform the work in any occupation. If there are no jobs available in your area, you should be on welfare or unemployment, not SSDI. SSDI is not a replacement for those safety nets but is being used as such because of the reasons listed in the article. That's one of its main points, and seems a cogent one. Unemployment isn't really a safety net, considering it only lasts for 6 months in most cases, and that's assuming you were working before (i.e. people fresh out of school can't get it). Same with welfare - isn't that only available to single mothers at this point?
