This is a difficult period in everyone’s life. We can try and put a brave front, attempt to have a “positive outlook”, and walk around with a frozen smile on our faces, but the plain fact is that life is tough.
These days, the trials which we face often appear to be insurmountable. Inflation eats away at the stagnant pay; the bureaucratic state seems to pass legislation after legislation which does nothing for the middle class; the amount of waste and fraud in the federal expenditures leaves one wondering — why do we pay so much in taxes when everything seems to be given away in mindless and useless political paybacks?
Did we really have to give those billions for corporations to start building computer chip factories? How many billions were stolen for pandemic-relief monies? At last count, was it (conservatively estimating) some 40 – 60 Billion? What percentage of kids are now on some form of anti-depressants? How many kids are now unable to read, write, or to pass basic educational tests? How many suicides are there, now, every day, every month, every year?
And meanwhile, we see the value of our paychecks diminishing because of the inflationary cauldron we fail to understand.
The trials of life, indeed, are heavy in modernity, but one aspect which still provides a ray of hope for people concerns Federal Disability Retirement Law under the FERS disability system. At least, there, the Federal Government has continued to recognize the value of providing for Federal Disability Retirement benefits for those who cannot continue to work in the career of your choice.
Contact a FERS Medical Attorney who specializes in Federal Disability Retirement Law, and recognize that — even in the midst of the trials of life — there is still a benefit which can help a FERS employee who can no longer perform one or more of the essential elements of your Federal job.
Sincerely,
Robert R. McGill
