re: 3.2 Million people over the age of 120 have been removed from Social Security Benefits

I hope they are chasing down where these payments went for prosecution.

I wonder how the database handles an old dude who marries a younger woman, and she continues to draw a survivor benefit.

If a 90 year old married a 40 year old and she continued to draw the spouses benefit how does the database handle that? Can some of these really aged examples be explained by legitimate explanations?

90 is a magic number where they are suppose to begin efforts to contact the recipients to ensure they are still alive

I think the 40 year old would be flagged for benefits and upon death, the 90 year old would have their death flag updated. Prior to 1972, there were about 6.2 M numbers issued so that spouses could get benefits. See IG Report

Back in 2023, the IG found 18.9 million database records that were not flagged as dead and had not reported earnings in over 50 years. They had reported a records issue on date of death back in 2015. SSA had not take action if they didn't have proof of death and did not consider it a priority as:

(1) They didn't have record of benefits; and
(2) Cost to fix in 2015 was about 9MM

SSA has known about the problem for awhile, but hasn't fixed it.

There must be some sort of way they find these people.

They supposedly will cross reference Medicare databases and create a presumption of death if there have been no claims in 5 years. Not sure how they caught this freak though.

If each one of these corrected listings received one letter a year, that in and of itself is saving in postage in the millions. All this nonsense adds up.

So you are ok with politicians embezzling trillions of tax payer dollars. You don't care about social security benefits being scammed? You don't have a problem with sitting judges relatives being on a NGO staff that receives millions from USAID? You are ok with them sucking your country dry, and giving billions to illegals who the spent billions more flying them into the country under the cover of darkness?

Some how you feeble minded people can't see that theft is illegal regardless of what team the cash goes to. Hopefully you experience the full effects that come when your marxists collapse America.

Well, yeah. Quick and easy. Yet, for +/- 20 years not one single Administration has seen fit to have even attempt to complete this simple task in an attempt to maintain the rosters. Why?
