Pretty much that way across the nation. Young out of shape (fat) people, fakers and no-goods looking for disability, young mothers looking for supplemental assistance for their children, foreigner parents of now-legal immigrants applying for SS.....barely a blue-hair anywhere....the old saying “death by a thousand cuts” has been expanded to something like “death by a hundred million cuts.”
They must *network* among their own acquaintances and sure know how to milk the system.
I wonder...does anyone know if the SSA workers have quotas; I mean, a certain number of people they have to process [to give bennies] every day?
Many still have their natural hair color, or they've learned that dye works. Their skin is taut because they work indoors. A little fat here and there gives them that aura of good health, and EVERYBODY has benefited from anti-biotics and other powerful medicines.
We can even credit advanced surgical techniques for much of the robustness of today's new retirees.
Why would you imagine there have to be "blue hairs" at the SSA office? You don't even see them at the public parks playing tennis.
