A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

SSI should be only for people that paid in.

Let's say im 25, on my way to work flipping burgers and some drunk driver crashes into me, leaving me disabled and i can no longer walk or use my arms. Should I just die because i have not paid enough into social security, i am no longer contributing to companies and capitalism and would "take away" benefits from other people?

BTW great job on shifting the goal post; never answering the previous question and always coming up with new ragebait.

That on the insurance companies and the drunk driver.
