I know a white guy collecting disability as a mental case working under the table not reporting any income nor paying taxes. Big Trump booster too.
The will be hell to pay for these guys. SSI has become a gravy train scam in a lot of cases. Lawyers specialize in gaming the system for these fake claimants -- probably get payments from the benefit recipient's first settlement from the initial denial.
I don't have a problem with anyone truly disabled and needy collecting SSI regardless of race. I got another white guy I know, chronic alcoholic, now 62 that wants to start Social Security. He never paid in, worked under the table -- I said they will let you claim SSI then and get your EBT card.
The Republicans will come after these guys and let them starve begging for charity -- oh well. Something good may come out of MAGA -- the unexpected.
Most of that chart on the Bloomberg link is in rural areas ...
