DOGE’s Social Security Breaches Send Staffers Into ‘Death Spiral’

The Social Security Administration (SSA) administers benefits to nearly 69 million Americans a month, amounting to $1.6 trillion in benefits. DOGE architect Musk has claimed the entire agency amounted to a “Ponzi scheme.”

Staffers told The Guardian that DOGE’s plans to cut 7,000 jobs, close offices, and alter the SSA’s computer code could risk millions of beneficiaries not getting their benefits in time if it collapses.

“They couldn’t understand the coding, so everything they said SSA was doing illegally, they weren’t,” the source said. “They don’t know what they’re doing.”

The union representing more than 40,000 SSA workers—the American Federation of Government Employees’ Social Security Administration—said it believes DOGE will seek to cut even more than the 7,000 jobs it promised to nix.
