There is no credible evidence of widespread fraud in the Social Security system. Social Security has played a vital role in reducing poverty among seniors in the United States. Before the program's expansion, nearly half of elderly Americans lived in poverty. Today, that figure stands at around 10% due to the financial support provided by Social Security benefits. We must protect this crucial safety net from unsubstantiated attacks by wealthy individuals who are disconnected from the realities faced by millions of vulnerable Americans relying on these payments to make ends meet. Social Security represents a foundational pillar of our social contract and any reforms should aim to strengthen, not undermine, this vital program.
