A View of the Future in the US?

The UPI reports that the British government plans to cut the number of people drawing disability benefits by more than 1 million. Under the plan:

...those on disability will be reassessed to determine if there is some job they can do. For example, the blind will no longer automatically be considered unable to work.

Everyone collecting benefits, except for those deemed completely disabled, will be required to engage in job interviews, training and work-related activities or face a cut in benefits.
