The rot runs deep in Washington, and the latest revelation is nothing short of stunning. Social Security checks are being sent to dead people and even more shocking, they’re being cashed. When Senator John Kennedy tried to intervene, Social Security officials admitted they had the data to stop it but said it was illegal to share it with the Treasury. Yes, you read that right. Fixing fraud is against the law.
The Treasury, which handles payments, could instantly shut down these fraudulent checks if they had access to the death records. But they don’t. Social Security has the list but can’t share it. This is government incompetence at a level that defies belief.
Why would it be illegal to prevent taxpayer money from being siphoned off to dead people? That’s a question no one in Washington seems willing to answer. The bureaucracy feeds itself, and any disruption to that flow of money is seen as a threat. This is why nothing ever changes—because too many hands are deep in the pot.
But let’s not forget the bigger picture. Washington, D.C. doesn’t actually produce anything. No factories. No farms. No tangible goods. Yet it has become the wealthiest region in America. How did that happen? Simple. The global economy was hollowed out. Manufacturing and industry were shipped overseas. In return, we got an economy built on paperwork, lobbying, and political influence.
The dollar’s reserve currency status kept the game going. Globalism enriched the political class while gutting America’s real economy. Now, Washington elites feast while Middle America withers. This isn’t a coincidence it’s engineered collapse.
The Social Security fraud scandal is just a glimpse into how far the rot has spread. Fixing it isn’t a priority. Keeping the money flowing is. That’s why laws are written to protect corruption, not stop it. Washington has built an impenetrable fortress around its wealth—and the rest of America is paying the price.
