The Social Security ‘waste’ and ‘fraud’ lie.

[HikerGuy83]

The premise of ‘waste’ and ‘fraud’ is based not only on a misperception, it’s based on ignorance, dishonesty, and lies.

You just quoted Musk saying there is no evidence. Is that the dishonesty or what ?

Moron.

‘Elon Musk’s promise is based on the idea of eliminating fraud, waste, and abuse within the Social Security Administration (SSA). However, according to Chris Orestis, retirement expert and president of Retirement Genius, that premise is based on a misperception.

“There is no solid evidence that large sums are being paid to people who do not deserve them,”

he said, in line with reports published by media such as The New York Times and Associated Press.

But even in the hypothetical case that ‘extra’ funds were found, that would not allow for an automatic increase in benefits. As Orestis explained, the only mechanism for increasing Social Security payments is the cost-of-living adjustment (COLA), which is calculated each year according to inflation levels. In other words, no matter how much money is “saved,” checks cannot go up unless the law allows it.

How Social Security benefits are calculated? These do not depend on the size of the trust fund or the number of employees in the SSA, but on the income that each person has had throughout their working life. To change that formula, Congress would have to pass a law, which is not on the table at the moment.’

You need to visit your SS office. Maybe that will wake you up.

Deep state and the swamp! Politicians voting on legislation not even knowing what is in it. Votes from across the aisle that may implicate them also. The protection of the D.C. class as they live above the law. Many citizens rights have been abused by the oppressors in government. And watching what other have gotten away with is disheartening. You went after Trump for agendas. However, none of your own is guilty of anything.

Why does it have to be “staggering proportions?”

And isn’t that subjective?

I did in the military as well. My relative who worked at the REC in Salt Lake thought it was well run, and that may have been because they were well paid.

But not of staggering proportions.

We need a DOGE like you need an internal lube in your old age.
