The Effect Of The Social Security Disability Benefits
The depletion of funds would definitely affect at least 10.9 million individuals receiving benefits under the disability program as of 2014. But this doesn't mean the other programs can already heave a sigh of relief. If the Congress does not get its act together, the funds for the retirement program will be depleted by 2035, which is earlier than the expected timeline.Experts in policy making say that the Congress can still do some changes to the program to prevent the cuts from happening just in time. Some recommendations have been thrown at the table. They can opt to reallocate a part of the salary taxes to the trust fund to compensate what is lacking for the disability program benefits. A short-term solution has been suggested by President Obama, which is to change the policy so that those who are receiving unemployment benefits may not receive Social Security benefits at the same time.
The Social Security program has not yet been acted upon to improve its health for the longest time already, and it looks like the lawmakers are not in a hurry to make something happen. For now, the fight for better benefits are being done on an individual basis.
