I remember reading years ago that the only reason Chris went back there was because a troll told him that Snyder sold the place and therefore his ban was invalid. Anyone know how true that was?

I think it was just that there was an "UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT" sign at the PLACe after Snyder bought it from the previous owner, and Chris assumed that it would now be full of an entirely new staff who didn't know him.

He did. But the two times after that he went back and started taking pictures of Snyder and his underage daughter. That's why Mike followed him outside and tried to block his exit until the cops came.
 
Chris is an unstable mentally disabled man with the mental maturity of an eight year old. He can barely discern reality from fantasy anymore, I have no problem paying into the tugboat. The terms of SSI are a disability that you will have for more than 12 months, limited functional abilities, inability to establish any substantial income, etc. I think that basically describes his situation. $10K is barely enough for you to even be required to file for taxes, with his kind of disability I doubt it would affect his SSI at all. 20-25K is usually a soft cap of sorts for government services.

Why are you obsessed with a mentally disabled adult losing their benefits?

That's cruel.

It's not his benefit, it was Bobs, and it was created when things were a lot different on many fronts

The Chris of today absolutely deserves to have that tugboat sank and to join the workforce.
 
Would you want Chris as a co-worker or employee?

Chris is exactly the sort of person I'm okay with the welfare state taking care of.
 
I can answer this question. I was involved in this field.
In order to understand how he qualifies for SSA, you need to know how the rules of eligibility work. It's really complicated but in essence, the question is, "Can this individual work and participate in substantial gainful activity"?

That is, you can work part time up to a certain limit AND draw SSI benefits. But money is involved first before the case gets handed off to a disability determination services agency. This is a state agency fully funded by SSA (weird right?).

It doesn't matter if you can't stand for 8 hours to do a cashier job. A workplace can make accommodations so you could sit, for example. So if you can do this FT and earn above SGA, then you do not qualify for benefits.

If you can sit/stand for 2 hours to do a cashier job, work 5-7x a week, but earn less than SGA, you are eligible to apply.

Chris qualifies for SSI (Title XVI) because he's never had any SSA credits. He is disqualified from SSDI (Title II) I believe. But I don't know the entire story behind this. I don't know if he's getting survivor benefits. But let's just assume he only gets SSI.

SSI is means tested, which means that your income and assets are taken into consideration. The program is designed so that you better be dirt poor if you qualify. The current monthly tugboat payment is $771/mo.

As for qualification... I mean... just look at the CWCki. Yeah, he definitely qualifies HOWEVER...
It looks like he is selling items for money, as well as begging for donations. I highly doubt it is being reported.

If anyone wants to, you can report that Chris is earning income while drawing SSI. They may send federal investigators to see what's up. What they may actually do is just send a letter asking him to report income, which he could easily lie about. If you have evidence of major financial transactions, you can say so and these could make for a better case.

I think people have already done this. The State gives no fucks. Chris isn't worth them wasting time on.
