Why DOGE is struggling to find fraud in Social Security
Claims of massive fraud by Elon Musk and President Trump are at odds with reams of audits and reports on the agency’s spending.

Bears repeating that social security is incredibly INCREDIBLY efficient to run. Its overhead costs are basically zero when you consider the size of the undertaking and the genuine benefits delivered. If anyone was interested in improving govt efficiency, the SSA would be their model not their target
Just some general guidance here. We don't know all the details. But this presages taking a real hatchet to the whole social security system. Whether it's 20% of the staff or 50% who knows. But basically unsustainable cuts for a program anyway we've known it.
Here's the memo that went out short time ago from SSA HR announcing "organizational restructuring" of Social Security admin. essentially one last chance to quit before you're all fired. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/memo-...

MTG is disgusting! I hope all the righty feds are happy with this. When your child’s IEP gone. Parents/grandparents SSA/Medicare is cut.
Receiving SSA disability will now take 2x. More veterans taking their lives. No more SNAP. No more OT.
THIS is what you voted for.
But, the EGGS🤯
