This podcast is a monologue by Attorney Walter Hnot discussing anticipated changes to the Social Security Administration (SSA) under the Trump administration. Hnot details three key changes: a mandated return to in-person work for SSA employees, the potential repeal of taxation on retirement benefits for working retirees, and the appointment of a FinTech CEO to lead the SSA. He predicts these changes will lead to significant staff shortages and service disruptions, but also discusses potential positive impacts, such as technological modernization of SSA systems. Hnot concludes by emphasizing the need for increased public awareness and engagement with Social Security issues.
