I do hope you have stats to back up that claim Yes there are a lot of spongers out there but to make the sweeping statement that most disabilities are in peoples' heads is wrong. I'll have to remember to tell my dad that his disability is in his head when I next see him. There are also a lot of people with disabilities that refuse to sponge off the state because they have a lot of pride and self respect. We cannot and should not tar all the people who are reliant on the welfare state to help them survive from day to day with the same brush.
