Social Security payments may be delayed
@Enzyte Bob
Hahaha, no it doesn't affect me cos I'm a Brit, but I find it so funny that I and so many other "sane" people know that it is really is going to happen and when it happens it is really going to affect those die hard MAGA Americans on here, when their social security payments don't arrive, I guess that when that happens they will take their cue from Trump and blame Biden every time. hahaha

What you post is a reflection on you and your opinion. You really know what's going to happen?
There are many Americans on this forum that are not in anyway die hard MAGA's and they do not share your opinion about receiving their checks.
I wouldn't worry about checks arriving, from reading your posts you're having a tough time even finding a bank that wants your check.
@Enzyte Bob
All my banking problems are now solved, I just had a minor hiccup in that my UK bank closed my account just when I was about to sell my house in the UK and because of that I had no UK bank I could pay the proceeds from my house sale into. Luckily I have had a long standing relationship with PNB Europe based in London and they sorted it for me.

So how is Musk & Entourage going to destroy the Social Security Dept?
SSA estimates it made $13 Billion Dollars in improper payments in 2022.

FY 2022: $11.1 billion in overpayments and $2.5 billion in underpayments from a total spend of $1.244 trillion, Mistakes will be made and I'm sure they already clawed back the overpayments and made right the underpayments already. It's just the same in my country, if they overpay then they take back the money, they don't wait for Elon Musk to come along to put things right.

They didn't wait for Elon Musk, SSA discovered it on their own. Sure mistakes can be made but fraud going forward can be eliminated, it doesn't take an Elon Musk, it takes anyone with the gile to tackle the problem.
@Enzyte Bob
So then why are all you MAGA guys now praising Elon Musk and Donald Trump for rooting out fraud and abuse of the system (as if it ever never existed before Donald Trump and Elon Musk came along) when the US had a perfectly designed and largely effective system before Trump and Musk......... the erstwhile politically independent Inspector General's appointed to each branch of government to search for fraud and abuse of the system....... before Donald Trump fired them all. Hahahaha

Lets get back on the topic you posted "Social Security payments may be delayed". Mugtech responded to you he received his direct deposit on time for the full amount. So you replied Musk's Goons haven't manage to completely destroy SSA . . . . Yet
Just how is Musk and his team going to destroying the SSA?
The SSA is long overdue among other agencies for streamlining. Forget your Maga Hangup and your obsession with Musk.
Their are many Americans on this forum who are not Trump or Musk fans but don't care to see their tax dollars wasted by uncontrolled fraud.
You also claim before Trump & Musk came along the US had a perfectly designed system and largely effective before there arrival. Really?
By reading your responses it appears not only you're not fans of the new administration it seems you might be inclined to see them fail as well.
America right now looks like a business that fired a failing manager and hired a team of experts to fix the situation . . . . Author Unknown.

By the way Findlay did you notice "Musk's goons" at Space X, rescued two stranded astronaut's?

The link is easy to fine:
Just Google: 13 Billion in improper SSA payments. (It's from the SSA office of the Inspector General)

You expect me to prove or disprove your point.
It's normal for those who make the claim to do that.
Link, please?

Inquiring minds would like to know including me.
There has so much to do about nothing when members of this forum thinks dismissing 16 Inspector Generals is the end of the world.
There are 74 Inspector Generals with 14,000 OIG employees.
Dismissed are the following:
*OIG of the Defense Dept.
*OIG of the State Dept.
*OIG of Dept. Housing & Urban Development
*OIG of Veterans Affairs
*OIG of Dept. of Energy
*OIG of Transportation Dept.
*OIG of Interior Dept.
*OIG of the EPA
*OIG of USAID
I don't know if the OIG of the SSA was fired.
But you implied he was . . . .I don't know . . . Do you?

   Don't care, don't know.
    Speaking of SS numbers, turns out the recently released JFK files contains the birthdays and SS numbers of 400 people involved. So the SSA will now be issuing hew SS numbers for any of the 400 still living.

They are not the same kind of goons that he has let loose in almost every federal dept. They are experienced astronauts.

You realise that includes underpaid pensions, don't you?

Yes I do for a very small percentage. Those people would contact SSA regarding being underpaid.
On the other dead people or overpaid people would not complain.

You say they are not the same kind of Goons. How many kind of goons are there?
@Enzyte Bob
You really know better than that don't you, but I guess you have to spread the Trump, Musk doctrine since it is obvious you bought into all that bullshit years ago and if you can't believe in that after all this time, then what can you believe in. No dead people are claiming Social Security, it's been explained to you and the rest of the brainwashed MAGA people so many times, there are systems in place, (At least there were before Trump sacked all the Inspector General's) to find these things if they exist, but mostly they don't exist, and the unvarnished truth it is all about cutting staff and denying benefits to people who have earned them, so that Trump can extend the tax cuts he gave to the 1% in his first term and then give the 1% ( including himself and Elon Musk) even bigger tax cuts in his second term. I'm still waiting for the first perpwalk of a government official charged with fraud and if these people exist I would welcome the fact that they were indicted for their crimes............ It's all bullshit of the highest order.
Though off topic I watched the MAGA mage deny any knowledge of the recent deportees to the worst prison in the world "illegally" using an over 200 year old war time law saying that others organised that, the network then showed the executive order for their deportation signed by guess who? Seems he has signed so many executive orders with no recollection of what he partook in and scant regard for the working honest people. I did mention many months ago a dictatorship and easy to see it unfolding and the fools that voted for him seem to be back peddling,,,,,, popularity? Dropping big time as many wake up.
I only hope that sanity takes the reins. I see the French want the Statue of Liberty back. And Bob to you the price of eggs you simply blame on Avian flue and while tragic most thinking countries control it within agricultural departments,,,,,,,, What happened in the US? Doh, cut backs and sackings? Here our eggs are 9 pesos each and beautiful orange yolks, Blame that on a different country as that's the head space for the brainwashed, all others are to blame. The rabbit hole is quite deep.
OMO as a backwater Aussie with wide eyes and sorry for the reality rant.
Cheers, Steve.
