Symptom: Social Security Disability Rejection

61% of Social Security applicants are denied after their first application. I am now on the second appeal, when 49% of remaining applicants are approved, and have hired a lawyer (disability lawyers are only paid if they win your case).

I set a new goal on ko-fi, in order to get more illmarks pieces into the world. The fundraising would cover framing two Med Art Advocacy pieces, and submission fees + professional scanning for the Mรผtter Medical Museum, a Senior Living Center, a Health Care Center & 3 other shows.

Where will governments find all the soldiers for the brewing conflict?

Within a well looked after population receiving a Universal Basic Income?

Or from a population that has been squeezed to the point of having no other option than sign up to the military?

Will rich people need to join the military also?

What do you think?
