Vampires on Social Security

people older than age 100 who may be receiving benefits from Social Security. The reported data are people in our records with a Social Security number who do not have a date of death associated with their record.


No doubt, Musk claiming 428 million in the SSA database are receiving checks is hyperbole.

According to SSA, about 70 million folks receive checks.

Even still, you gotta wonder how they accumulated data on over 350M who have never been reported as deceased.

Is this fraud or laziness?

The folks who are pushing back against the DOGE reports have not offered a response but rather are issuing personal attacks on Musk. Typical reaction when you can't defend your position.

Who cares about some dormant names on lists containing millions of names when they have no impact whatsoever on any department's function or budget spending?? It's a moot point unless you hear Trump or Musk sensationalizing it to their minions.
 
Perhaps he doesn't have America's best interests in mind when he's telling bald faced lies.
He has HIS interests in mind, because feeding info to MAGA gives the appearance he is making progress, which they'll credit him for, even though he's done nothing.
 
I have as much proof he is lying as you that he is truthful. That's the problem. Who knows what his real motives are.
