It’s also massively frauded by immigrants where the main breadwinner lives outside of the country and leaves his housewife and kids here in a huge house with “no income” for 18 years collecting the full benefit monthly.

That’s currently $2,600 a month right now for 2 kids… or $500,000+ if they both collect for the full 18 years.
