Some media are reporting that Social Security Disability will run out of money by 2017.
A variation of this has been reported for several years.
The sky may be falling, maybe not.
A interesting question is whether this has an effect on the way Social Security Judges rule in their disability cases.
Some judges treat a Social Security disability case like it is their own money.
However, most judges are like umpires. They call it according to the rules.
Of course, some umps are really bad.
I do not think media hype will affect individual disability cases to any great extent.
If you meet the requirements and have consistent medical treatment you can still win your disability case.
Just keep an eye on the politicians and what they do to try to help the situation.
