        My favorite question, if the article didn't give the context. (Paywalled.) I'd say yes, it's a lot, relative to 2010 stimulus (71,688 people, ~$20 million.) https://oig.ssa.gov/sites/default/files/audit/full/pdf/A-09-10-11017.pdf?mod=article_inline …

        Is this why they are afraid of dead people voting? Their own gross incompetence?

        my late mother got one. visible through the window in the envelope, just to the right of her name: DECD. i think it would have been relatively easy to tell the computer to not send checks to persons with DECD in the name field. i have a photo. if you’d like a copy, dm me.
