I think they drag it out in hopes that people who need it will literally die before they have to shell out the funds - those evil, nefarious bastids!

A 2007 study showed that 17% of all people who are denied for social security disability, die before they reach the hearing stage. Since that study, the time between applying and the hearing date have become an average of 4.3 months longer. I'm inclined to agree with your assessment.
