"Disabled"

In "Reassigning Meaning", the reading claims that the "disabled" people in this culture received this name because they were medically diagnosed with a psychological or physical disease. These people are the ones who have to live with what you can call a "lack of" certain abilities. In this present day, many people claim they are "disabled" when applying for jobs, even though they are medically diagnosed as "functional". Some employees use this to bail themselves out of trouble or to receive compensation in different situations. This is something that can be labeled as "immoral" or "insulting" to people who are medically diagnosed as "disabled" and have to deal with it everyday. Do you feel these actions that employees go through with are "wrong"? Why or why not?
