Oldsmobile was founded
Dos Equis was first brewed

Saw that and was about to create a fourth for gits and shiggles, but couldn't think of a good line to play on your 3 threads.
instead of receiving a few bucks from George Soros to rabble.
Seriously. Where's my money?I'm still waiting for my check...

Drew S said:That is one instance, obviously, but there are a lot of others that have nothing to do with one's mental state. There are some where it's a matter of convenience or the person is just poor managing their money. Antoine Walker went bankrupt after all. A lot of people here are putting the cart before the horse and fundamentally misunderstand the rule.
Yeah, like they forgot half of the banks they put their money in over the years or they consistently forget where they're going and aren't allowed to drive anymore. People don't just give up power of their finances or have that priviledge taken away unless it's an absolute last resort.It should go without saying there is a wide range of reasons someone might manage a SS recipient's finances.
I'm going to take one more run at explaining the SSA gun grab. Between the political spin in the two articles I posted and my own snarky comments it is a bit hard to understand if you're not familiar with guns.
No one is losing their gun rights because of their disability or whatever reason they're on social security. That doesn't play into this at all. Where people lose their rights is when they either run out of money(there is probably a different term than bankruptcy) or someone else takes over their finances. It doesn't matter why someone else manages their finances. It should go without saying there is a wide range of reasons someone might manage a SS recipient's finances.
I have no problem with people losing their gun rights because they are judged to be a danger to themselves or others based on a medical expert's opinion. This had nothing to do with that though and is a blanket ban based strictly on finances. It is important to understand the distinction between the two. Hopefully this clears up the confusion.
Based on what you describe, it wouldn't be limited to medical conditions either. What if it's a stay-at-home spouse that had little to zero knowledge about finances, and then just went on a spending spree once the spouse died?

If we do not find an individual to be disabled based on a mental impairment, he or she has not met the reporting requirements and we will not report them to the NICS.
