COBOL an old operating system could not accommodate zeros in the same way as newer systems. When you die the government gets a form from the funeral folks you are gone. It’s been this way from the beginning of Soc. Sec.

tRump doesn’t care how many times one of his lies has been debunked, he'll continue repeating it over and over ad nauseam.

That is the liar's way ... it will become truth through repetition and the ignorance of enough people who can be cozened.

Most of what comes out of Trump's mouth are lies, and when he occasionally speaks the truth, it is always to tell us that he is carrying out something immoral, evil, and diabolical. In such situations, he is always trustworthy.

His magats believe everything he says, without ever listening to anything he says.
