Just to point out, SSI does not have to be a permanent thing. And its not like they stop you from making more income, they just don't continue giving you SSI if you make more money than that so its up to the person if they still need the SSI or are functional enough to find work that would give them a salary disqualifying them from SSI. At least as far as I Know.
Its not like they'll send a hit man to come and threaten you and demand you only ever do menial labor.
