Affluenza? Jesse Jackson Jr. to Grab $8,700 Per Month in Disability, Plus Pension In Prison

Isn't it nice that we, who pay, are so forgiving?
Jesse Jackson Jr. to Grab $8,700 Per Month in Disability, Plus Pension In Prison:
"Convicted Congressman Jesse Jackson Jr. (D-IL) is scheduled to receive $8,700 per month in government disability pay, as well as a partial federal pension of $45,000. 
That generous $8,700 in disability comes thanks to Jackson’s sudden development of a “mood disorder” as the federal government began looking to indict him.
Jackson, who was sentenced to 2.5 years in prison, had no history of mental illness during his prior 17 years in Congress."
