Strange but true, some illegals may be paying social security and Medicare taxes.

But this is net inflow, not outflow. You don't get paid if you're illegal. Even GC holders need to ahere to certain rules to qualify, afaik.

Sure, everybody suspects that. The question is how many are legit dead and how many are just data glitches. This will require legwork. How many people over 100 shown as getting social security in that table Elon released - 40 mil? How many clerks would be needed to check every one of them over the next 4 years? That's 27K cases per day every day, including weekends (but working on weekends is a superpower, so it's fine). Not sure how many cases a single person can close in a day, but it's hard to imagine something more than low teens.

Any 19yo monkey can write a one-line SQL statement. The real work comes after.

The Wall Street Journal Line is "This isn't really fraud, it's to help illegals pay into social security" leaving out the "Many TPS Refugees are signed up by Jesuit Social Workers within weeks for valid SSNs, which then allows them to register to vote or for JRS to give them to DemActivists to register motor voter in 'honor system' states like Washington."

WHISTLEBLOWER: They were incentivized to qualify illegals for LONG TERM DISABILITY to qualify illegals for Social Security FOR LIFE, “So they were set for life”

“They wanted us to try to identify them in such a way that they would qualify for long-term social security disability. Now long-term social security disability is for life. So if they get identified and qualify for long-term social security disability, they are as good as set up for life”

“That doesn't sound like a refugee to me. Just being honest, that sounds like someone who's planning on staying here.”

“So they instructed us to try to identify, to try to get the client, because once they arrive here, they're now called clients. —So they told us that we needed to talk to the client and ask them if they had any headaches, recurring headaches, or any lower back problems, anything that would qualify them for Social Security Long Term Disability”

“Yes, it is insanity. But in order to get Social Security disability benefits, don't you need a Social Security number? Well, we were instructed in the meeting that one of the first things we were supposed to do was sign them up for Social Security.”

“This is unbelievable. So they come over here and they get a Social Security number. Right. They become legal.

Correct.”

Democrats wanted illegals migrants on PERMANENT social security so they could drain our system and we’d pay for them until the day they die. They’d never have to work a day in their lives in America

Illegals are illegals and must go but their presense in the system makes proving that $4.7T is being syphoned off harder, not easier. Because whatever Deep State syphons off through these 300 yo payees the illegals fill back in, LOL.

I have a hunch they keep the most primitive systems in place rather than expediting the release from the rolls for the obvious reasons: they can keep a bunch of inefficient and agog civil servants on the rolls, too. They also keep alive a system that defies efficient audits on purpose to cover up the chicanery aka like the paper trails in warehouses heaving with old papers randomly arranged instead of computers.

Not me, but former employer would hire workers that would get their ITIN (illegal). They had to file taxes and pay into SS even as a contractor. If they have an ITIN the government looks the other way if they're legal or not.

He's probably shitting his pants right now though. I haven't talked to my former boss in 7 years. Part of the reason I had to leave. He wanted me to participate in illegal activities. Nope. Typical Chicago liberal/leftie. I was out. 15 years of his bull shit.

Strange. People who say SS couldn't be that sloppy, and yet election fraud was conspicuously sloppy with fake addresses and dead people. They just don't give a fuck because they believe themselves to be impervious i.e. impervious leads to sloppy.

... and yet no prosecution of the sloppy election riggers I'm aware of. Must be not that sloppy after all, if they are so hard to catch.

Not hard to catch, hard to prosecute with the Dems, LibbyFucks and Freemasons at the helm. I gather that Trump has the election frauds on his menu, but we will see.

Right. But unlike many other things this needs to be done before midterms, which are less than 2 years away.

"The question is how many are legit dead and how many are just

No it does require legwork because we already know just by looking at the age of
the Social Security recipients. We have over 20 million retirees who are over 100
years old. At this point it is safe to assume that these 20 million recipients are cases
of fraud. Except perhaps ten people or so.

I am asuming they can track what account the checks were deposited into.

Really? You can tell by just looking at one field that this is really the age of a recipirent and not date attribute corruption during transition from COBOL to RDBMS or during Y2K scramble? How?

"drain out stystem"? To what end? What purpose?

You'd sure think so. Lack of this talking point from Elon/Trump is EXTREMELY concerning.

Al_Sharpton_for_President says

That's the legwork. Part of it. But apparently, as we just learned, it's not necessary.
"Because we know by looking".

So what's the next step? Cancel all these accounts which have hinky number in the DOB field outright? And if at least half of these turns out to be legit people whose data was effed up deal with 20M happy customers? With what workforce? And is it really better than do the legwork first?

PS. The fact that Musk and his 19yo geniususes don't even enterntain the possibility of data being screwed but go straight for "they are all dead" is fucking amateur hour.

I can believe they all voted for Biden. Over and over again, too.

No standing before election, nothing wrong was done
No standing after election, you should have brought this forward before.

Also, the biggest steals were in the bluest areas. Elections are run by the state. All of irregularities happened in a handful of counties in 5 states. The RINOs threw it on purpose; they fought tooth and nail over a few hanging chads in Florida in 2000.

Were any of you as shocked as I that Social Security employs 60,000 people?

WTF???

clambo says

Not shocked since it's government after all. You probably need 1-5k people max. The employers and business owners send the info in on their own. It's a database operation. Data in, payment out when you want to start collecting. If anything 1K of those employees should make sure recipients are even alive.

While basic, Federal input for payroll is redardedly simple. You don't need a payroll service. Did it for 15 years. I could easily do it for a company of 1k employees on my own.

The benefits clearly outweigh the costs or disadvantages as far as stop payments on Social Security fraudulent accounts.

Those who are adversely impacted (which I doubt would be 20 million let alone 2 million) can go to a law firm or local Congressman's office to resolve this.

Send out notices warning that their benefits would be stopped in 3 months unless they provide more credentials or evidence needed to ensure the payments are not fraudulent.

With proper credentials or evidence it should not take the government more than 30 minutes to resolve this.

Interesting on the local neighborhood blogs. The propagandists are getting some real kickback, unlike previous times where virtually every poster would just politely toe the line with the propaganda line. The MSM Mockingbirds are doing everything they can to 'explain away' the SS discrepancies with, of course, a pack of lies. Never would have seen this in Cali probably just last year. Exchange got heated with the propagandists eventually resorting to name calling of those trying to rebalance the thread.

OP had just quoted some MSNBC crap explaining away the SS numbers of dead people collecting.

Remember this is coastal California. Even here, the lies aren't working any more, no matter how much they scream and yell them.

Patrick says

Hi Patrick. I'm genuinely curious about this—do you think most of these are actually fraudulent payments, or could they be some kind of database artifact or reporting issue (some sources mention COBOL dates, timestamps, etc ... ). Just asking for your opinion as a data guy who has likely has seen lots of data systems.

No it does require legwork because we already know just by looking at the age of
the Social Security recipients. We have over 20 million retirees who are over 100
years old. At this point it is safe to assume that these 20 million recipients are cases

"Really? You can tell by just looking at one field that this is really the

Common sense. You are looking at the age of Social Security recipients over the age
of 100 and you have no reason to assume otherwise.

The_Deplorable says

Exactly. Double digits could be fat fingers or other goofs. More than that is bullshit

Wouldn't be surprised, given the tendency of the demons to multi task. Laundering AND election fraud in a single package. Where better to get a roster of dead voters than SS?

AmericanKulak: Democrats wanted illegals migrants on PERMANENT social
security so they could drain our system

GNL says

""drain out stystem"? To what end? What purpose?"

To bankrupt the USA.

Patrick says

DNC for sure along with all 3 letter agencies must know the real people who those numbers translate into with address, phone numbers, relatives, their pets everything. It must be an open secret under privacy but within certain circles.

AD says

Send out notices warning that their benefits would be stopped in 3 months unless they provide more credentials or evidence needed to ensure the payments are not fraudulent

How about stopping benefits immediately?

If they have the wherewithal to cash checks they should be able to verify their identity.

"drain out stystem"? To what end? What purpose?

Partly Cloward–Piven to drain on purpose and partly not caring about draining as long as it helps buy a future voting block.

The commentary on YouTube videos is also overwhelmingly pro DOGE and Trump on this issue.

Eric Holder says

Was Y2K really an issue for COBOL? I see Wired and other magazines claiming that COBOL did not have a date function, but that is not correct. True a 2 digit date was often used, but a very easy fix:

01 DATE-FIELD.
05 YEAR PIC 9(2).
05 MONTH PIC 9(2).
05 DAY PIC 9(2).

01 FULL-YEAR PIC 9(4).

IF YEAR < 50 THEN
MOVE 20YY TO FULL-YEAR
ELSE
MOVE 19YY TO FULL-YEAR.

Also COBOL was was made Y2K compliant anyway:
