SSDI ( Social Security Disability Income) for many people is their only income if they lose 18% of their monthly income they will not be able to live in their communities any longer. The only place they will be able to go is a nursing home costing taxpayers 3 times what they are paying in SSDI payments and prevent taxes being paid into the government through the attendants that work for them.
Why is this important?
A nursing home costs taxpayers on average 3 times what home and community based services do. In home and community based services a person with a disability can live in their community and give 2 to 3 home care workers employment. Some will also be able to work and pay taxes themselves and not need SSDI. Help people with disabilities to remain at home and save you Mr and Mrs taxpayer from even higher taxes then we pay now.
