Social Security Website Has Hours

 Yes, that's right. The Social Security Administration has hours. I went on its website a few days ago early in the morning, and behold, the damn thing was closed! Why would such a site limit hours? SSA employees are not required to immediately respond to something a person initiates on their website, such as requesting a replacement Social Security card, or change of address. 

Or, perhaps the approaching March 31, 2025 deadline requiring people to sign up for ID.me or login.gov requires some Republican tinkering. If SSA recipients do not sign up, the frail, the elderly, the disabled, and others will be required go to a SSA office in person. No matter how hard it is on the person. No matter how far as 47 Social Security offices are set to close.

And now we are hearing about the SSA website servers being overloaded and crashing from heavy traffic.  Hmm, cutting hours on a website will aid in crashes, as it funnels people onto the website within a confined set of hours.

SABOTAGE! I took a screenshot of their website hours to show a friend, now I want to show the hours to anyone who may happen to see my Google and Bing suppressed blog, despite the astronomical odds. A blog which has not been indexed in 2 months.

Sabotage.

Adding Update:

A quick update: The deadline to open a new online account has been extended from March 31 til April 14, 2025. Why isn't that just special and heartwarming? Lee Dudek decided to listen to their customers, and display a brief spurt of concern for the "to the country's vulnerable population". For two whole weeks!
