I imagine there's plenty of people on the SSA books that are dead and nobody bothered to send in a death certificate. I also imagine that the accuracy of the numbers increase as time goes on. For instance, I think it's a lot more likely someone dies in 1948 and nobody bothers to tell the feds than in 2025.
Very likely, yes.
Honestly, I don't really give a shit if the raw numbers are off, as long as the actual payments going out are going to deserving people.
Same here. I'll however add that since SS#s are used as de facto national IDs in the US, having a large number of them still on the books and therefore presumably still active, the potential for their fraudulent use (bank accounts, loans, credit cards, employment, etc., etc.) should be a cause for concern.
So far all he's posted is some fucked up excel numbers to catch headlines, and he needs to provide some actual, in depth audit numbers for who is receiving the money and how much. Frankly I'm tired of the political points scoring and posturing, do the fucking audits.
Agreed again.
 
They keep sharing this stuff like it make him look bad, I don't think they realize it just makes him more relatable to a lot of us.
Tells you a lot about the kind of people they are.

The original article, by the way, was in The Independant and had a different title:

So I don't think I'm that far off. Not shitting on Kelly here, she just doesn't seem like the type of person to get it, you know?
Barron is going to school in his hometown. He already has a social circle and doesn't need the university to provide it for him. He's behaving exactly like every other commuter student does.

In contrast, the journo went to school in Upstate New York (LinkedIn):

If you're going to school in small college town like Poughkeepsie, of course you're going to spend a lot of time on campus. You know nobody there and there isn't much to do in the city (if you're a liberal college student who will later move to Chicago and New York).
 
God, the Nazi Schtick is getting annoying.

At a certain point people are just going to stop caring about being called Nazis.
Nazi has been a joke since like the 70s. After all the actual Nazis died out. Nazi= National Socialist German Workers' Party. As the party no longer exists, and we aren't German it's a ridiculous insult used by people too stupid to actually eloquate their point or for a laugh. Call me selfish? Bigoted? Racist? Close minded? When it was still possible to have a conversation in good faith I might be compelled to defend my position or consider my views. Nazi? No I'm not a German in the 1900s that wants a union with Austria and half of Poland.

They're probably pissed that he doesn't put himself in places that could blow up into some media scandal. If I had a group of lunatics ready to accuse me of anything and everything I'd go the fuck home and only hang out with my friends too.
 
@Lord Atem Can't quote so have to tag.

Germany's sin is murdering millions of people, Germany's sin is plunging the world into a second world war when it was only just starting to recover from the First World War which Germany is also at least 50% responsible for, Germany's sin is ruining Europe, Germany's sin is ensuring that no western nation can ever have a strong nationalistic government hell we can't even have slightly right-wing governments anymore because that's too Naziesque thanks again to Germany.

But silly me I forget, DA JOOZ DA JOOOOOOOOOZ!
Germany's sin is that they lost.
 
Lol so this story might be bullshit because they maybe jumped the gun?

If there's no money going out, then there's no fraud, right?

Not smart, if true.

What happens when you find real fraud after (potentially) fucking up like this?

Is this going to be the boy who cried 'wolf'?

I sincerely hope this isn't going to end up as a big oopsie whoopsie on snopes.

We know there's plenty of real fraud to be found. Just throw a dart in any direction and you'll find it.
No money doesn’t mean no fraud a lot of things require a social security number now imagine you have acesss to millions of those numbers that are still tied to an “alive American” the dead don’t report identity theft.
 
Friendly reminder to everyone saying europeans wanted these laws, no we didn't. In fact we said very explicitly and loudly NEIN in the 30's to all of this shit (remember the books which got burned?). But America got tricked into a brother war and bombed us away and then forced us into accepting these laws or face total annihilation. If we were to undo these laws we'd be considered nazis again and be blown to bits. Also your nice investors who so selflessly helped us rebuild (for the low price of total control) are the people lobbying for the shit happening since then. Ever since then Europeans had no vote or choice in any of these matters. Your own VP said that your uniparty had a hand in Europe becoming the way it is now and just look at the shit USA ID was doing until Trump ended them, hell has to freeze over before i believe that they didn't pull this shit in western Europe too.

Do we need to pull ourselves out of it again? Yes absolutely! But are we fully at fault for it coming this far? no america also had a hand in this. If america hadn't intervened in WW2 we would most likely not be in this situation.
You deserve it for losing.
Can’t buy anything if everyone is broke, unemployed and miserable. Even niggers put under enough pressure will give up McDonalds and instead eat a bag of rice mixed with meth.
I am the Jane Goodall of niggers. They'll just rob the McDonalds.

I had my own apartment and my own friend group when I was in college so this was pretty much how my days went. Don’t see what’s weird about it in anyway. Imagine a dude wanting to just leave school and go do his own thing or hang out with people he has been friends with for years and trusts and not the weird goblins that infest colleges these days. Especially since we know 10000% some bitch would love to try and say he assaulted her or something at a college party. Just looking at X or TikTok and you could believe one crazy bitch would do it for clout and to defeat the evil Nazis.
