Maybe it would be worth me looking into the law in newzealand for my thesis,
sinse it does seem a better model on this point.

Subject: Re: [Audyssey] How to non program a game
aah I understand
we had this issue and had to fight for it but we get exempt on the grounds
that if something happens or if we need extra stuff we can or something to
that effect.
Interestingly enough people in the us and uk seem to have a few more
issues than here.
we seem to have got over most of our stereotypes and things which
shouldn't bee, I mean we are a small country so exactly why small places
get this quicker when we have less people is beyond me.

Hi Shaun,
Yes, there are benifit restrictions. It depends on if the person is on SSI
or SSDI. In either case there are some restrictions involved.
I can't quite remember the exact amounts, but if I'm correct here is how
it works for those people on SSI. You can make up to $80 per month without
it effecting your SSI benifits. After that you lose a dollar for every two
dollars you earn, or something like that. After a certain point Social
security cuts the person off at the knees as he/she is making too much to
qualify for the program. Plus he or she must turn in their income to the
IRS for tax purposes, and the IRS takes their cut of what you made.
Failing to inform Social Security and the IRS of your earnings can
actually cause the person involved owing both the IRS and Social Security
Administration money. Not to say the least the person can do some serious
jail time. So making money especially, unreported money, while on SSI can
be a serious problem.
I'm going to assume here Jim is on SSI or SSDI. Either way for him to take
money under that kind of arrangement is very problematic. SSDI is more
flexable, but there are still restrictions involved there too.

In new zealand to some extent we are exempt from said things, ofcause if
we are earning a million bucs then maybe that would go away but hmph.
