I agree with you there, at least insofar as any change I can think of to stick it to them would also probably hurt the people the system was designed to help. I'd rather fund a few deadbeats than a genuinely disabled person go hungry, if given no other choice.

I guess I just fail to see how reducing the number of people on disability could, taken in isolation, result in economic damage to the rest of us.
