The Social Security Administration has continued to pay millions of
dollars in benefits to dead Americans, and other elderly U.S. residents
are at risk of losing badly needed aid because they're improperly
recorded as deceased, federal investigators warn in a new report.

And how many of those payments were made because SSA didn't update its
records when notified of a death? In other words, how much is due to
bureaucratic ineptitude rather than fraud?

GWB and Cheney were paid by the feds for eight years.
Nothing more needs to be said....
There's a rumor that GWB and Cheney poisoned Michael Jackson.
You might want to ask Keith Olbermann, Salon, and Mother Jones.com to
investigate.
And if all else fails, ask Miss Cleo.
Why wouldn't they? He's not dead yet.
That makes perfect sense. He isn't dead, so his spouse (or former spouse in
certain situations) isn't a widow and isn't entitled to survivor's benefits.
