Second, the largest segments of Americans living below the poverty line consist of children under 6, the elderly, and the disabled. In effect, you are screaming out the window at a three year old child to go get a job.

One woman and her 3 children living below the poverty line will cause statistics like this. No one is screaming at the child to get a job, they are telling the mother to get a job.

The process of obtaining disability benefits from social security is a long and arduous one. The MINIMUM wait is two years - many times its longer.

Purely anecdotal evidence here... My father-in-law had to go on disability benefits from social security last year. It took a month and a half before the first check arrived.
