Damn shame, some old lady worked centuries just to pull those SS checks and now these pricks are halting her payments…

Deflection as always. You don't have an answer or the band width to discuss it - just discuss it - What is the proper standard of proof?

But instead you cross your eyes, depicate in your pants, cry out "JFB" and post a link to zerohedge.



I thank you for your consistency.

wait a minute! zerocred???

all these endless links are from a site from Ukrainians on Putin's payroll?
That's some fair and unbalanced crap right there.

That explains recent unchecked stupid posts like Zelensky is a nazi...born Jewish but don't let that ruin the facts.

I've been ignoring it for the most part, kinda chuckling with sympathy, but this borders on dangerous.

and I think you meant defecate.

What Russian propaganda links are you referring to?

While COBOL (any old EDS'er knows about that platform!) had its own set of quirks and possibly could be why the accounting errors pop up I have a hard time believing them. The Newsweek article wants to have things both ways.

"Because some implementations of SSA databases default missing or incomplete birthdates as a reference point, often May 20, 1875, this means that records without proper birthdates could incorrectly display ages far beyond human lifespans."

and...

"The 1875 epoch argument is bulls***. COBOL doesn't even have a date type. It is completely system specific to however the developer initially created it - hence the mad scramble for Y2K rewrites."

I have every faith that the DOGE team understands coding and what they're working on and what they're uncovering. They're working WITH people entrenched in these systems or do you not know that? Why wouldn't they have birthdays in the existing system? More importantly why use the antiquated system? Sounds more like garbage in and garbage out. NOT how I want our government to operate. The Wired article throws this out there:

"The fact that the Social Security system contains millions of entries from people who are dead is likely distinct from a potential COBOL-caused error, and also not news. A report written by the SSA’s inspector general in 2023 found that 98 percent of those aged 100 or older in the Social Security databases are not in receipt of any benefits. The report added that the database would not be updated because it would cost too much money to do so."

You want to quibble about people being older that 150 and while that's unsettling you're not even talking about the TAS findings and the 4.7 trillion unaccounted for! THAT is the story.

SSA payments are automatically stopped at 115 years old... the outrage over SS payments to these "Dead people" is a joke...

as for the 4.7 i haven't commented on it AT ALL because i only have a small bit of info and nothing to contribute... i don't comment on things for which i have no facts or or information to provide... hard to form an opinion on every item with so much chaos and BS going around... not all of us have all day to read propaganda.

I did not click your links. I do have a sick wife here and had to attend to her, but I was giving this a lot of thought.
I did minimal double checking (Al Jazeera) in the meantime....

Despite rayr's nonsense over the years, the Nazis were and are extreme right lunatics.. In WWII we kinda used the adage "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" and fought the Nazis with Russia...despite our differences with the Commies.
Perhaps this is similar?

This small division of the Ukrainian fighting force unquestionably includes, but does not require, members be neo-Nazis, they formed well before Zelensky was a politician, he had no real political career earlier, probably under Poushenko or whatever his name was. They were part of the National Guard, I'll take your word for them being full Army battalion.

They are ultra nationalists, white supremacists, no different than what we have in our country in similar groups.

And they hate leftys, they hate Russia, and they have been successful fighters against them...including Russia's invasion roughly a decade ago.

I could comment on how I feel personally about such partnerships made in times of extreme distress and dire circumstances, but it's really about how they feel about an alignment with the devil that matters here.

What would you or I do under the same circumstances?

But I also think it's not legitimate to make an "if this exists then that must be true" supposition.. like implying Zelensky must be a Nazi if he tolerates some in his defense efforts.

Is it not fair for me to wonder how far into that thought process would we need to go to ask WTF Vance is doing scolding Europe in general and Germany (Germany!!!) in particular that they are bigger threats to Democracy than Russia or China because they are trying to prevent the return to power of the most hideous regime in history?
Or why President Musk is endorsing a real Nazi party in their elections? Shall I assume Trump approves?

Are we discrediting Ukraine (and actually all of Europe and all of our traditional allies) to cut up the world into two or three new divisions to be controlled by us, Russia and China?

And back to the Russian invasion...when did it become Ukraine invading Russia? I mean before this week.

It's personal for you. I can understand that, but if you cannot see the necessity of our out of control spending and the entitlement our government places over citizens vs the world and illegals...well I'm at the point too bad. We need to cut unnecessary positions and shutter duplicity and overlapping.

As for Zerohedge? You are completely WRONG on your assumption. The are a more finiancial money side of thinking and their staff reflects exactly that. The espouse the same ideals as our Founding Fathers with regards to anonymity (which in their world is deeply needed!) but they ALWAYS have supporting links that show they're not making stuff up and have done the heavy lifting in regards to actual reporting of facts. If they ever are wrong...they run a supporting story showing where they were wrong. When it comes to finding any source of information today only Breitbart and Zerohedge deliever with solid consistency and they rail on the MSM with their "unnamed sources".

About


the zero hedge manifesto

our mission:

to widen the scope of financial, economic and political information available to the professional investing public.
to skeptically examine and, where necessary, attack the flaccid institution that financial journalism has become.
to liberate oppressed knowledge.
to provide analysis uninhibited by political constraint.
to facilitate information's unending quest for freedom.

our method: pseudonymous speech...

anonymity is a shield from the tyranny of the majority. it thus exemplifies the purpose behind the bill of rights, and of the first amendment in particular: to protect unpopular individuals from retaliation-- and their ideas from suppression-- at the hand of an intolerant society.

...responsibly used.

the right to remain anonymous may be abused when it shields fraudulent conduct. but political speech by its nature will sometimes have unpalatable consequences, and, in general, our society accords greater weight to the value of free speech than to the dangers of its misuse.

- mcintyre v. ohio elections commission 514 u.s. 334 (1995) justice stevens writing for the majority

though often maligned (typically by those frustrated by an inability to engage in ad hominem attacks) anonymous speech has a long and storied history in the united states. used by the likes of mark twain (aka samuel langhorne clemens) to criticize common ignorance, and perhaps most famously by alexander hamilton, james madison and john jay (aka publius) to write the federalist papers, we think ourselves in good company in using one or another nom de plume. particularly in light of an emerging trend against vocalizing public dissent in the united states, we believe in the critical importance of anonymity and its role in dissident speech. like the economist magazine, we also believe that keeping authorship anonymous moves the focus of discussion to the content of speech and away from the speaker- as it should be. we believe not only that you should be comfortable with anonymous speech in such an environment, but that you should be suspicious of any speech that isn't.

You can take that "Russian propaganda" stance and blow it out your backside. YOU and others here that take the same stance as you hate that I use it BECAUSE they're a factual source with a higher credibility rating than anything I've ever seen posted. It's not my fault you want to remain ignorant.

Nice to see another poster that has done their research on the region.

It goes back to after WWII...the real Nazis scrambled to locations they could hide in and the USSR gave them their spot hidden away from the Western world. It never got better. They were forced out into the open after the Iron Curtain fell. If one wanted to use the g00gl3 they would find pics of John McCain and Lindsay Graham surrounded by Nazi flags, and soldiers giving the Nazi salute...but Lefties want to bury their heads and scream "FAKE NEWS".

Any major operation that Ukraine has had successes with in keeping this stalemate was done with the Azov brigade.

No, the Fascists and the Nazis Were Not Right-Wingers

By Allen Gindler

The Left and mainstream political science identify Italian fascism and German National Socialism as right-wing ideologies. Their motivation is clear: they do not want to be associated with regimes that brought civilization horror and suffering on an unprecedented scale. The Left traditionally substantiates its point of view with two theoretical propositions. First of all, fascism and Nazism do not belong to the Left because those regimes did not institute total collective ownership on means of production as Marx prescribed. Secondly, nationalism and racism have traditionally been features of the right, whereas the Left is perceived to comprise internationalists.
