10. lowering the age for SS is one answer

of course, the political class wants to raise it. i am 55, soon to be 56. my chances of landing a decent job are just about nil. so, i am trying to get SS disability for my shoulder and neck problems. the idiot doctors don't seem to grasp that working on a computer 8 hours a day, every day (i am an Accountant) greatly contributes to my pain and discomfort. and there is no cure for my problem.
i took time off when i broke a bone in my foot and had to get UI because the doctors would not give me disability...for a damn broken foot. i was in a boot, so i could not drive and had to take public transportation. i didn't have to walk much while at work, but i had to walk to get there miraculously, my foot healed in about a month after i stopped walking on it...after 5 months of wearing the boot and walking and of course, my shoulder and neck are much better too, since i stopped working in march.
