" I had SSI for over 10 years. It is a pitiful sum. In addition they make it hard for you to rise up out of the poverty. If you make money they reduce your payments. If you have cooking facilities they reduce your payments. If you recieve financial help from your family, they reduce your payments. The social services and clinics can be second rate. The system can really hang u up. You are also labeled disabled when you are in the system. "
