The Social Security Administration has one job—to get the right payment to the right person at the right time. It’s not a tech startup where 95% uptime is acceptable. If checks go out late, that’s not a glitch—it’s a failure of mission, a breach of trust, and a warning sign of mismanagement. What’s worse is the hypocrisy: billionaires like Howard Lutnick wouldn’t tolerate a missed payment from a borrower—but expect seniors to shrug it off when the government fails them. If SSA can’t hit 100%, the problem isn’t the recipients—it’s the leadership.
