The article says 6.5 million in 2015. Did you notice the number has grown? It looks like the hole has grown. I can't say I feel most of it was an accident. How long has it gone on?
Well if its grown as much as they say (and if there is no explanation for it and its really true) then I guess the Barney Fife speech "Nip it in the Bud'' is too late !
One particular case I remember was several years ago a man and woman and there son were stealing copper wire from the entrances to farms most of which were places without
anyone living there. It was over a 3 or 4 county area and one of my places was one of them. That's probably the reason I remember the account. Anyway the boy got into a hot wire and got fried. The old man and woman put him in a deep freeze for a few months to conceal the matter or they would be caught for stealing. To make it even more complicated they were still getting his disability soc sec.
I've heard of another instance where a spouse was in dire straights and tried to conceal a death to get the soc sec.
Surely that kind of thing don't go unnoticed that much with all the electronic data with death certificates etc. Its not like the government has to sit a read all the obits to find out who has died.
Obviously time will tell what all the hoopla is about and the facts will finally surface after the whistle was blown a decade ago. Wouldn't it be something if all those cat eating illegals had those social numbers, lol.
