One More Word About Social Security Cuts and I’m Flipping a Cluster of Tables

Greetings, my dearest internet dwellers. It is with a heavy sigh that I return to our cyber realm to exorcise another set of societal demons. Today, the golden calf on the chopping block is the good ol’ Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), Social Security travails, and, of course, our favorite scapegoat du jour – Trump. Oh, fun times!

Here’s a little charming fact about me: If I have to read or hear one more time about Social Security benefits cuts or any other of the truckloads of crap that’s being flung around because of DOGE and Trump, I swear, my hair is going to spontaneously catch fire.

“Oh, my Social Security benefits are going to be cut.” “Oh, DOGE is the reason my retirement is a pipe dream.” “Oh, Trump’s policies are to blame for it all.” Stop. Just, stop. Please. You’re killing me. My doctor said another wave of this mass hysteria could dissolve my last shred of sanity. If you love me, spare me, won’t you?

You should have been worried about your Social Security benefits long before now. They’ve been screaming from the hilltops for ages that it was broke, it was going to run out of money, the sky is falling, and only the intervention from alien overlords are our sole hope… or at least, that’s how dramatic it has sounded.

But hey, let’s call it what it is. People, get your heads out of your butts. Like I’ve said before, I don’t agree with everything the Trump camp does. I’m not lining up for the MAGA Kool-Aid. But come on—when we’re literally finding tax dollars funding ridiculous nonsense, maybe it’s time to pause the performative outrage. DOGE, under Musk’s chaotic genius, took a peek into the Social Security Administration and found anomalies that would make a dystopian novelist blink. There were people listed as over 120 years old, still “receiving benefits.” Unless we’ve got a secret vampire retirement colony nobody told me about, that’s a problem.

Elon Musk even called them “digital vampires.” Yes, that’s a thing that was actually said. And while the Twitterverse chuckled, DOGE started purging dead weight (pun fully intended) from the system. These weren’t minor clerical errors; this was mass-level government sloppiness. If that doesn’t tick you off more than a mean tweet, you might need to recalibrate your outrage meter.

And off-topic—but not really—I heard people calling into a radio show claiming that because of budget cuts under this Administration, cancer research is “going to end.” Excuse me, what? WTF. We’re now just casually throwing that kind of apocalyptic nonsense out there? Hyperbole is one thing, but fear-mongering that preys on people’s worst nightmares to score political points? Nah, sit down. We’ve got real problems to scream about. Cancer research deserves funding—period. But don’t wrap it in a political guilt-trip and pretend that’s journalism.

Anyway, back on track.

This whole Social Security money drought? It’s not just because we have too many retirees or because millennials aren’t having 12 kids apiece. It’s because hands that shouldn’t be in the cookie jar are shoveling away like it’s a Black Friday clearance event.

Unearth the corruption, wring the fraud dry, and lo and behold! There appears to be ample cookies for all. Benefits can go through the roof and we can retire in style or, at the very least, in comfort. Now wouldn’t that be nice?

So yeah, DOGE, Trump, benefits cut, blah, blah. The real issue? It’s the wrongfully owned hands in the cookie jar. Let’s factor that into the equation before we shove the blame onto other buzzword-laden scapegoats. Can we at least try that?

But, you know, whatever fits your narrative. See if I care.

I wash my hands of this insanity. Bis nächstes Mal (till next time)! Trust me, this soap opera isn’t going anywhere – not when we’ve got a fresh batch of cookies to protect.
