Congress needs to get back to Econ 101 and reality. When you tax something, you will get less of it. When you subsidize it, you will get more of it. In 1984 Congress made it much easier to claim disability under Social Security. Having headaches, feeling depressed? You might be "disabled" and eligible to live off the working. Does anyone really think the workplace has gotten so much more dangerous that there are three times as many disabled now?
