Diability Discrimination

I have previously written about how the SSA (Social Security Administration ) is making it harder and harder to qualify for SS disability. Did you know that despite its duty to weed out and fight discrimination for the disabled in many ways our government does the opposite when it comes to the disabled community. Take unemployment insurance for example. If one is fired or layed off from work than at least they are eligible for unemployment insurance. if you are disabled on the other hand (perhaps a minor stroke ) and unable to continue to work, unemployment insurance is not available. He/She is up the creek without a paddle. More reason, to get disability insurance from your employer or on your own. Insure your income.
