1. She's wonderful and to the point!

There's another YouTuber who posts and all of his videos are lame. Glad I checked this out. Will follow. Boomer recommended.

2. I didn't

think anyone was allowed to get paper checks for years now. Guess I am wrong.

4. I'm not wasting ten minutes of my life

to listen to this, but if she says anything about paper checks, other than as you pointed out, they haven't sent them out for decades now. People who don't have a checking account get a debit card that gets refilled every month.

More to the point, if SS rules were changing in two weeks, I doubt this woman, this post on DU is a good source.

6. Not everyone has bank accounts

It is most true for the most vulnerable among us

7. people like homeless people do not have to have a checking account, they get a debit card which is where their allotment

goes to and used to withdraw cash, pay groceries etc. it's actually easier than having a paper check.

10. That's true

9. About 450,000 people still receive checks:

5. We have Direct Deposit.

Though many do not have bank accounts. Or online access to check on that.

8. For years people who do not have checking accounts, like the homeless, get a debit card where their funds are deposited

it is actually a thing that's been in place for several years. a couple of decades at least.

11. This is not really good news. It's more slimy crap dressed up in empty promises

I am not reassured at all.
