SS payments need to be totally shut down until we can figure out what the hell is going on.

They may be "dead" but they can still collect Social Security AND vote democrat. They identify as "non-living" and they have the same rights as any other citizen

Great news! Cutting SS offices but not benefits. Winning.Some people don't believe that fat meat is greasy. DOGE is going after social security.
Full List of Social Security Offices Closing After DOGE Cuts
Recent federal initiatives from President Donald Trump and his administration have led to the closure of multiple Social Security offices, raising concerns about the accessibility of services for beneficiaries nationwide.
Newsweek reached out the Social Security Administration via email for comment.
Why It Matters
Trump, in collaboration with Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), has directed the General Services Administration (GSA) to terminate leases on approximately 7,500 federal offices, including those of the Social Security Administration (SSA).
The SSA is already struggling with staffing shortages. In testimony before Congress on March 21, 2024, former SSA Commissioner Martin O'Malley stated that by the end of FY 2024, the agency would serve 7 million more beneficiaries with 7,000 fewer full-time staff than in FY 2015. He warned that the SSA cannot "keep doing more with less," noting that budget constraints have left the agency at its lowest staffing level in 25 years. Combined with office closures, these shortages could worsen delays and limit critical services for beneficiaries.
What To Know
The Department of Government Efficiency, established to streamline federal operations, has initiated the termination of leases for numerous Social Security offices across the country. This action is part of a broader strategy to consolidate government real estate and reduce operational costs.
Here's the list of Social Security Offices that have been or are in the process of being closed by DOGE:
The outcomes for the buildings varied: some faced lease termination, others were consolidated, backfilled, leased directly by agencies or moved to federal space.

If I miss one payment, I'm going muskrat hunting for his pelt. Ponzi scheme in ultimate slow motion doesn't make any sense. Young dudes wanting to invest, instead of paying into the SS system have never heard of the Great Depression.

Two people die at age 75. Both have the same earning history.
One was eligible for Full Retirement Age SS benefits at age 65.
The other was eligible for Full Retirement Age benefits at age 70.
.
.
.
.
The person drawing full FRA benefits at age 65 will draw more benefits then the person whose FRA was raised to 70.
That's basic math.
So ya, raising the retirement age is a cut in benefits as it delays when equal benefits start.

Age extensions were per age group... My sister is 70 and she waited till she turned 70 to collect SS but she was eligible for the full amount at 65... Her husband is also 70 and took his at 66... he still gets his full amount but less than my sister... and if you collect and keep working it goes up every year because you are still contributing...
