ENTRY REVIEWING THE COMMISSIONER'S DECISION. "The standard for disability claims under the Social Security Act is stringent." Williams-Overstreet v. Astrue, 364 F. App'x 271, 274 (7th Cir. 2010). "The Act does not contempla te degrees of disability or allow for an award based on partial disability." Id. (citing Stephens v. Heckler, 766 F.2d 284, 285 (7th Cir.1985)). "Even claimants with substantial impairments are not necessarily entitled to benefits, whic h are paid for by taxes, including taxes paid by those who work despite serious physical or mental impairments and for whom working is difficult and painful." Williams-Overstreet, 364 F. App'x at 274. Taken together, the Court can find n o legal basis presented by Ms. Lewis to reverse the ALJ's decision that she is not disabled. Therefore, the decision below is AFFIRMED. Final judgment shall issue accordingly. SEE ORDER. Signed by Judge Jane Magnus-Stinson on 6/29/2015. (BGT)
