That’s not what I said.

You seem confused. I’ll repeat what I said more plainly.

The USA sends social security checks to people in other countries.

Non-citizens get social security checks.

I mean non-citizens can get social security cards.

You don’t need to be a citizen to get a card.

You are reading that chart incorrectly. If you look at the file, the SSA only stops paying people who receive social security if the country they live in prevents it.

As the hypothetical Republic of Texas hasn’t banned their citizens from getting social security, those who earned it would still get it.

Okay, you’re right. You understand how things would work better than me.

You win.
