Sitting here reading yesterday's mail. I got stimulated!!! WOW!!! Letter from Social Security Administration reads in part... "Good News! The economic recovery bill that president Obama signed into law in February 2009 provides for a one-time payment of $250 to Social Security... beneficiaries. Your one time payment will be $250... You will receive only one payment of $250." Then I got unstimulated -- The letter also says, "We will not count the one-time payment as income for SSI purposes. If you keep the one-time payment for 9 months or more, it will count toward your SSI resource limit." That means the $250 will count towards the $2,000 limit in liquid assets that handicapped people must stay under to collect their Social Security (SSI) checks. Is this the beginning of a wave of government led discrimination against the handicapped? Is this not Hitleresque? uw
