Yeah, it is odd. Just because someone is 100% disabled through the VA doesn't mean they can't work. Females get like 60% for having their girl parts scooped....

Hell, sleep apnia (nothing that prevents you working) gives you 50% right off the get go..

Then what would you suggest? Stephen Hawking found work with no problem - but I doubt anyone would seriously suggest a veteran who was disabled to the level Hawking shouldn't receive full disability.

I don't know. I just find it odd, here she is working (and proud of it, it seemed from the report) but she is complaining she is not getting enough from the VA for disability due to having a dependant.
