Social Security Checks Could Stop Going Out by April, Ex-Head Warns

[Into the Night]

There will be all kind of lawsuits if those social security checks are stopped or late?!! The Trump administration already has dozens of lawsuits pending from federal workers and others?!!

Meh. Trump has all the authority he needs to fire them.

 

[Into the Night]

Social Security is paid by present day workers. Their checks are taxed to make the pool. Social Security can never go broke unless work in America stops. If the money collected does not meet the full outlay required, the checks will be smaller. Trump is trying to starve it out of workers. Social Security is run on under 1 percent of revenue. It has never missed a check in over 80 years. But we never had a president before who wanted to sabotage it.

Nobody is sabotaging it, Sybil. You are still hallucinating.

There are a lot of people that Musk fired who used to send out those checks.

Nope. They do not send out the checks. It's not done by hand, Wally.

 

[Into the Night]

Half a percent overhead is considered pretty good. There is adding people, investigating fraud, removing people, etc. Sending out checks is not just "printing checks."


So only the new benefits that will be delayed?

It really must suck to be so paranoid like you, Wally.

 

[Into the Night]

I allow myself to take some time off.

Time off from what, Wally? Your welfare?

 

[Into the Night]

Roughly the same number as in 1964, when we had far fewer people, and the government did far fewer things.

Again, half a percent overhead is virtually nothing.

Stop making up numbers, Wally.

I am 54 years old, and currently working, not retired.

There have been problems getting Social Security withholding. The SSA is obviously having trouble. That means more red tape for the rest of us. trump screws us again.

You obviously aren't working, Wally. You can't even describe a paycheck.

 

[Into the Night]

They are going to slow down. There are going to be problems. A system that used to work perfectly, is going to become a system that sometimes works.

Federal government checks bounced... There was a software error that caused that to happen in the 1970's, so the system was not literally perfect, but it had not happened in 50 years... Now it happening all the time.

What 'problems', Wally??
Social Security is NOT working perfectly. Payments have been going out to people 'older' than the United States existed! T And someone's cashing them! That's fraud, Wally.

The former head of the Social Security Administration warns that proposed cuts to the agency could lead the entire system to “collapse,” disrupting benefits payments to millions of Americans.

“Ultimately, you’re going to see the system collapse, and there will be an interruption of benefits,” Martin O’Malley, former Social Security commissioner under the Biden administration, told CNBC. “I think that will happen within the next 30 to 90 days.”

I spend a lot of time working on the internet. I am a software engineer, so spend most of my time working on computers that are at least in-directly hooked up to the internet.

You couldn't code your way out of a wet paper bag, Wally. You are no software engineer.

 

[Walt]

You obviously aren't working, Wally. You can't even describe a paycheck.

I cannot remember the last time I got a physical paycheck. I seem to remember it had a perforated line and a tax/benefits statement attached to it. Is that how it worked back when you were last employed? Or were you employed back when companies would pay people in cash?

I also got paid in cash back when I was a bouncer. There were times they tried to pay me with a bottle of alcohol, so barter.

Get back to me when you have proven some of those claims.

Friends reporting they have not received this months check.

I am a company, Wally. Too bad you have no paycheck.

RQAA. Denying what has happened won't work, Wally.

Making shit up won't work, Phanty.

 

[Walt]

I am a company, Wally.

No you are not. Maybe you own a company, but legally a company would be a separate corporate person.

I have to do the payroll thing again, any advice on a good payroll service?

 

[Walt]

The taxes are being processed much slower this year. Next year it will be a complete shit show.

How much do u want to bet they don't stop by April?

 

[Into the Night]

No you are not.

Yes I am, Wally. I own my own company.

Company organization method doesn't make any difference, Wally.

Stop making shit up, Wally.
