Restricting the forced early applications to the Social Security disability benefits program is a common-sense reform and could bring about real and meaningful change in the lives of occupationally disabled workers.
As the debates over federal spending and budget cuts rage, there are a few areas of commonality that emerge from the warring sides. Almost everyone agrees that deficit spending and the ever-increasing national debt need to be addressed. And while reducing spending on the federal level is a perennial goal, almost everyone also argues that any cuts to certain federal entitlement programs, like Social Security and Medicare, should not be up for debate.
But what if there were an uncontroversial way to fuse those two sentiments together into a useful reform where real cost-savings would be achieved, and savings could come from Social Security and Medicare, without cutting a single benefit for anyone?
