1970/80 The IBM 360s in Phillios and elsewhere

Job Control Language (JCL) is a scripting language used on IBM mainframe operating systems to instruct the system on how to run a batch job or start a subsystem.[1] The purpose of JCL is to say which programs to run, using which files or devices[2] for input or output, and at times to also indicate under what conditions to skip a step. Parameters in the JCL can also provide accounting information for tracking the resources used by a job as well as which machine the job should run on.

1970/1980 explains it 😀
 
As far as I've seen, Elon never said there was fraud in SS or that tens of millions of people were receiving SS payments that shouldn't be. He simply pointed out that really old people were listed in the SS database, right?

Over the past few days, President Donald Trump and billionaire adviser Elon Musk have said on social media and in press briefings that people who are 100, 200 and even 300 years old are improperly getting benefits — a “HUGE problem,” Musk wrote, as his Department of Government Efficiency digs into federal agencies to root out waste, fraud and abuse.

You're right. It was probably all a non sequitur that people misunderstood and he was too embarrassed to correct.

Again, if these people have such mush for brains as you admit elsewhere, why on earth would you give Elon the benefit of the doubt? He's running his exact twitter playbook on the federal government. Twitter is worth maybe 10-15% of what he paid for it (note: private valuations are higher but they are almost always optimistic). This is what you want? Why give that man any benefit of the doubt?

This actually upsets me. If they are going to destroy so many lives then touch social security and Medicare.

These Boomers who are living on social security need to feel the pain too. Tired of seeing people on social security and disability constantly saying that the government is stealing their money.

He either said something or he didn't. Even ABC, as of 30 min ago, says he's only "implying".

President Donald Trump and Elon Musk, in their hunt for "fraud, waste and abuse" in the federal government, are falsely implying millions of dead Americans are receiving Social Security benefits, experts told ABC News.

Right... he doesn't say anyone is getting benefits. He's just saying the database is showing inaccurate info.

Come on, man. He literally says that the government is paying benefits to those people when he jokes about them being vampires.
