We had a friend (notice I said “had”) whose wife became a citizen ONLY because she could get social security even though she had never worked here for even one day. She actually got more than my mom who’d worked for most of her life. Something’s not right.

No, it’s not. And these folks ALSO receive Medicare and/or Medicaid. Medicaid for sure ...but as an RN, I was shocked to see that many of them are also on the Medicare roles ...esp the elderly folks, those who immigrated here wtihin the past 10 years or so. Somehow they just jump on the bandwagon and no one questions how long they’ve actually paid into the system — or, if ever.
And we wonder why entitlement spending is out of control. Nobody talks about this.
