The story:

C&P
Records from former U.S. Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr.'s divorce case show how he has been able to collect hefty benefit checks from the federal government after serving time in prison for looting hundreds of thousands of dollars from his campaign fund.

Jackson, 51, receives about $138,400 a year - more than he made as a freshman congressman in 1995. Most of that - about $100,000 - is workers' compensation and tax-free, according to Chicago attorney Barry Schatz, who is representing Jackson in his divorce proceeding.

The rest of Jackson's benefits are Social Security Disability Insurance payments, some of which may be taxable, Schatz said.

    Hmmm, I've got some thoughts on the subject but would just as soon not get banned for voicing them here.

    He is drawing the SSDI at that rate because Quote:"due to personal injury or disease sustained while in the performance of duty," I assume they mean while he was a congressman.[:(!][:(!][:(!]

    This guy should be shot.

    I have buddy who got his arm blown off and is blind in one eye because an RPG hit his HUMVEE and he doesn't make that much.

    payments flow to Jackson because he has bipolar disorder and depression - the issues that led to an extended leave from Congress in 2012[B)][B)][V][V] you have Obama and his hang nail disability act to thank for that

    Damn shame when these freeloaders milk us taxpayers.
    He has never worked a day in his life, other than trying to figure out how to scam the system like Rev Al and Daddy Jessee.
    If they were white they would be in prison.
