Streamlining. Everybody does it. My guess - after most of the fraud and waste is discovered, all of the 'going bankrupt' claptrap will diminish. Start saving now? For the next 30 to 90 days? This O’Malley goofball has never written a budget.

[Jane Long]

More CNBSC gaslighting.

[catnipman]

former this, ex that ... who cares ...

[Ann Archy]

FEARMONGERS!!! SCARE THE OLD LADIES!!

[Recompennation]

So what’s the 51 former intelligence office peoples have to say, (declare!) about it?

[PeterPrinciple]

Social Security has never missed a benefit payment

---

Is that the management goal or is there another goal to be measured?

[Reily]

It will go bankrupt because of the manner in which it is funded! Its funding method is similar to how a Ponzi Scheme works. Rooting out all the fraud just pushes the day of reckoning further out!

And no you have no asset ownership in the money you paid in! There have been several USSC decisions in the past confirming that.

Old Democrat strategy: SCARE THE FEEBLE-MINDED.

Why is “going bankrupt” claptrap?

We owe 38 trillion.

What’s bankrupt to you? 50 trillion? :)

[aimhigh]

Social Security has never missed a benefit payment since the program first began

False. They have declared people to be dead, in error. Their benefits stopped for months as they struggled with bureaucracy.

[Georgia Girl 2]

Scare the old people. 🙄

[alstewartfan]

Yes. Why did any elderly vote for Kumrade/Timpon? Fear engendered by non-stop Big Lies.

[BookmanTheJanitor]

The guy who recently ran for Chair of the DNC said that? No way....

[GingisK]

Would they have us believe that they fill out those checks and envelopes by hand?

[Raycpa]

I hope whoever processes my check every month doesn’t gt laid off.

[rbg81]

Never missed a payment...even to people who have no business getting payments.

[shelterguy]

Then stop having it deducted from paychecks.

[GOPJ]

So if we cut fraud and waste from Social Security things will get worse? I don't think so.Elon needs to take a long look at 'disability' I'm guessing the sexual weirdo community has learned how to rip off social security disability.... It's just a guess - but the 'community' seems to be behind a lot of the abuses of all our financial system.

[plain talk]

“Ahead of any interruption in benefits, “people should start saving now,” O’Malley said.”

There won’t be any stoppage of SS checks. However people should have been saving and have enough money on hand to survive a temporary glitch in government checks.

[antidemoncrat]

Man those government employees are sure running scared ... Good
