    SSDI cut in 2016

    Law, rule, it's not going to happen. The only way it can happen is if they do it this year, and soon. The new Congress is just throwing their weight around and they have other things they want to do right now ie: rid the country of the ACA (not ADA). In 2016 all of the seats of the party in...
