Enforcing a Strict One-SSN-Per-Person Policy Would Trigger a Seismic Shock

… supposed 150-year-olds in the database. It's not because we're sending them Social Security checks, that's just too obvious. Instead, it's because multiple people are using the same SSN. They're paying taxes, but the Treasury Department doesn't intervene, because those individuals aren't filing returns (obviously, this video shows that might be changing). They're receiving public benefits, but HHS doesn't raise the issue, because inflated headcounts justify expanded programs. They're attending schools, but the Department of Education stays silent, since larger enrollments support bigger budgets. Enforcing a strict one-SSN-per-person policy would trigger a seismic shock to the bureaucratic sprawl that depends on this hidden layer of participation. This isn't a harmless quirk. This has very real and devastating effects. Many of my followers have tried to apply for SSDI only to be denied because the SSDI database claims they're currently working and there's no way to resolve that identity fraud. This bureaucratic overreach conveniently ends when it comes to helping actual citizens, it seems. On the other hand - these same systems also give us a paper trial for exactly who and where these illegal immigrants are.
