    If my SSDI payment doesn’t show up you can bet I will raise hell. It’s going to possibly mess up my Medicaid and Medicare. And if it’s a long term issue my HUD housing.

    FAFO and shit’s going to get ugly quick. Well, as quick as my disabled ass can move

      That’s my money, that I paid into the system for many years. Keeping it amounts to theft.

      If they stop sending SS check, they will create a demographic of very angry old people with nothing to lose. Many have guns and military training. They will absolutely fight back.

      They just built a new SS facility near my house. The first month that my check doesnt show up, I know that several thousand of my friends will show up there, and that office will be destroyed.

        You sure that facility is going to be staffed? They’re cutting the SS admin staff to barebones and closing the offices so that people can’t complain. They don’t want to hear you, they don’t care about you. As far as Musk and Trump are concerned, they already have your money, it’s just how to funnel it into their bank account instead of yours. There’s no way to stop them plundering the entire SS fund, no one in government was relying on that money for themselves anyway.
