Apparently, President Obama’s “stimulus” plan called for sending an extra $250 to ten thousand dead people. One 83-year-old fellow’s mother died back in the 60′s, and her check showed up at his place.
Social Security representatives said there is a good explanation. Of the about 52 million checks that have been mailed out, about 10,000 of those have been sent to people who are deceased.
On the bright side, maybe such errors will be helpful when He is running the health care industry.
