Interesting. I wonder who is correct? Probably a little of both, but I can’t believe some 80 million 0-18 collect a check. My grandkids don’t (though I wish they could. Only my grandkids, understand?). Auditing the checks from the treasury would be a start, followed by a review of direct deposits. Sounds like a DOGE database error. Sometimes when you link data tables and you get every record, or some majority. If true, it’s a query error that should have been noticed right away.

And though Federal employees won’t show up to work, I noticed they showed up to protest yesterday.

0-18 occur for death benefits to a child when a parent who had paid in died while child is a minor

for some foster care situations

for some disability situations regarding parent

you are fortunate that your grandkids have avoided being recipients of this … don’t wish for their parents to die or become disabled. that’s not good

80,000,000 seems high though

Thanks for the clarification. Thats helpful to know because most of us just think of old people.

Correct. I quickly found that in 2020 there were 73M under age 18. Even adding in the 18 years old, there is no way 80M are receiving benefits.

Looks like you are correct, here is what Google’s AI, Gemini, says:

If 80m are in fact receiving benefits, there is a huge disconnect.

FEMA lol
what a joke
No,you're the joke. FEMA has helped the people after disasters. I have friends who have been sent to areas after hurricanes to help people get their claims taken care of. Because there is some question about where funds went (still a question), should not take away from the good FEMA has done. Sounds like you should go work for Musk since you know all the problems.

You scared for some reason?

I choose to believe a person who doesn't have a dog in the hunt. Musk is just doing work.
its amazing what dems are arguing over
literally just took a huge L in November and cannot get over it
they will find scraps to complain about until the clean up is over
I have never seen a group of people (middle age white folks act this way lol)
get over it

There are a lot of fine folks with FEMA, but it's also true that FEMA adds an absurd additional layer of red tape and bureaucratic inefficiency - almost necessarily baked into a federal agency.

Had a long talk with the county manager here in Bay County that oversaw Hurricane Michael issues, he could go on and on about the difficulty (and waste) associated in dealing directly with FEMA that was drastically improved when they could go directly to the state for those funds. (This included getting trailers for under a third the price FEMA billed for the same exact product.)

so you are telling me only Men and Women can get SS? Trans are out? Interesting
You have to use your SS number so you will be ok. You will still be a male or female.

😂 No you’re the joke! I’d pay money (another donation to those effected in NC) to see you take a little trip up to the mtns of Western North Carolina and spew this garbage to those affected by the disaster there last fall…it would not be a good trip for you…if they didn’t beat your a$$ first, the people there would tell you all about “the good FEMA has done” …funds meant to cover their disaster (American citizens) were depleted due to funding illegal aliens, money that was not meant for or appropriated for such idiotic crap…FEMA was no where to be found until way late in the game, and even caught skipping properties and homes with “Trump” signs ….to hell with FEMA!
