Social Security War Room

During the Senate Democrat press briefing today, Senator Elizabeth Warren announced the creation of the "Social Security War Room."

Comment:
The Democrats are turning up their social security cuts fear to 11.
But the truth is that nobody is going to get their social security payments cut.
Trump's DOGE is just trying to eliminate off of the waste, fraud and abuse in the social security system.
The Democrats know that fear is a strong political tool.
But it will not work if people are informed.
Do you remember Al Gore's "social security lock box" fear mongering?
It didn't work because people didn't believe it.
"Social Security War Room" is about like Al Gore's "Social Security Lock Box", it's BS.

Bullshit dummy. Don't you get it? They aren't going to end social security. They're going to destroy it from within and then tell you it was a ponzi scheme. God ur dumb. Are you going to bend over and take it?

How old are you? You probably already get yours. Or you are too young to care.

 

[TNHarley]

Any rational person knows they arent going to do anything to social security.
Its just moonbattery.

 

[d0gbreath]

Da pubs want to privatize it before the great depression 2 happens. They'd better hurry.

1. SS is not a "Ponzi Scheme" because there are always deposits being made by workers.
2. The SS surplus was spent by creating the "Unified Budget" to use the SS surplus and put in IOUs.
3. SS will be insolvent in 2035 unless it is "fixed" to pay promised benefits beyond 2035.
4. One fix is to deny benefits to the unqualified, as DOGE is doing.
5. Another fix is to raise the "cap" on those making over $____________

Democrat's fear mongering is to scare voters, a better idea would be to "fix" SS, as they have done several times since 1947.

So you don't want to privatize social security?

Fiserv CEO Frank Bisignano is scheduled to face questions about that Tuesday from senators

Ahead of that hearing, Democratics sent Bisignano a letter to ask him whether he would support privatizing the Social Security

Ongoing efforts by the Trump administration, in cooperation with DOGE, may result in changes that will “hollow out” the agency

The Trump administration and DOGE are setting the Social Security Administration up for failure, which could be used to justify a “private sector fix.”

Musk, who has clear disdain for the program, has taken up the mantle as the latest privatization crusader.

Musk, in a February interview with podcast host Joe Rogan, said Social Security is the “biggest Ponzi scheme of all time.”

The SSA currently invests the payroll taxes it receives in Treasury bonds. By allowing for those funds to be invested more aggressively, some argue it could provide better returns. To be sure, that also requires taking on more risk.

Deny benefits to the unqualified? How many unqualified are getting benefits?

Another fix is to put the money they borrowed back. All the savings we are getting from all the layoffs? Put that money into social security lock box.

No it's not a ponzi scheme. But Trump and Elon think it is.

There was a program to clean up the SS data but they weren't as capable as DOGE, obviously.
DOGE will need to tabulate how much they saved SS compared to the $31m the SS boys found, especially payments to illegals.

Trump, Musk Exaggerate Scale of Improper Social Security Payments to the Dead - FactCheck.org

President Donald Trump incorrectly interpreted data shared by Elon Musk when he misleadingly claimed on Feb. 18 that “millions and millions of people over 100 years old” may be receiving improper benefits from Social Security. In fact, only about 89,000 people aged 99 or older received benefits...

www.factcheck.org

As of September 2015, the Social Security database automatically designates individuals aged 115 and older as deceased. Additionally, a pilot program launched by the Treasury Department in 2023 has recovered $31 million in improper federal payments to deceased individuals, both from Social Security and from other government agencies. The program projects to recoup $215 million by December 2026.

Do you democrats deny that SS is broke?... do you want the program to be saved?...

@DOGE
For the past 4 weeks, @SocialSecurity has been executing a major cleanup of their records. Approximately 9.9 million numberholders, all listed age 120+, have now been marked deceased. Another ~2 million to go.

Responding to what she called Musk's "absurd claim," Nancy Altman, president of the advocacy group Social Security Works (SSW), said Friday that "the truth is that Social Security has a fraud rate of 0.00625%, far lower than private sector retirement programs."

"It is Musk and DOGE who are inviting in fraudsters," she continued. "Scammers are already rushing in to take advantage of the confusion created by DOGE's service cuts."
