Tell me Im lying
Can't say you're lying, but your two examples are exaggerations.
While the black, female bus driver can demand SS, she is far from meeting the requirement ... essentially needing 10 years of work to qualify.
Same goes for the "immigrants on the tarmac." Nonsense.
While both of your examples may qualify for some other Dem handout, true SS isn't one of them.

The work requirement is waived for applicants who can prove that they became disabled at or before the age of 22, as these individuals may be allowed to collect on their parent's or parents' work credits. The parent(s) experience no loss of benefits.

What is killing Social Security is SSI and disability payments. Neither requires a work history. It is true that SSI isn’t strictly a SS account category, it is administered by SSA. These payments amount to a full quarter of all SSA payments.
