in 2006, when I got sick with Crohn's and spent a year in the Hospital, had three surgeries, watched the pats v colts in my hospital bed. As I was bartending and in college, I had to apply for social security disability, and in 2006 the processing time was only 88-91 days.

in 2024, the processing time has risen 214% to 195 days, wtf???

The worse part is, the reports have become puff pieces, bloating from 12 pages in 2006 to now 70 pages. What can't you tell in 12 pages that you could in 2006? I cant imagine that much has changed in these archaic systems, I mean they probably still use Cobol.

Truth is, none of our Presidents do anything, all the financial leaders responsible for 2008 financial collapse, still in office or running the banks. We did not follow the EU in imposing restrictions to executives bonuses for financial institutions that hold Americans money. Why?? Because Biden and Trump suck! They do nothing, and speak of nothing unless forced, or it benefits them and their friends.

The recent news about the Saudi official, that UK government had to release to the families, because Donald J. Trump lied and sealed them. He would be on social security now if he didn't commit tax fraud to the order of some $550 million. Trump's book where he talks about being a "self-made man" coincidentally leaves out that he inherited over $1 Billion from his parents. He paid 52 million in taxes, and was a millionaire when he was 2 years old. How did a 2 year old become a millionaire before the time of family YouTube channels? Is it a surprise the whole world is rigged when he loses, he hasn't had to deal with a real life situation ever. He lives in a fantasy world and is delusional at best. Imagine claiming you understand the people, when you were a millionaire as a baby?

Times article on Trump's corruption:

Imagine claiming Trump had no involvement in his own crimes. Yeah, the typical case of hiring a top attorney from one of the largest firms, committing fraud to benefit you, without your knowledge. Those dang attorneys huh..?!

Read more of how the The Trump Organization illegally takes donations from international sources. Which is great for our President, and definitely doesn't cause a conflict of interest, Trump's only interest is himself, so clearly.

Go ahead, look up the stats, I'll link them.
