marking people in the ancient Social Security database as 150 years old means they’re dead and not receiving payments.
My guess is that is what happens when you tell a group of 20 year olds to "find something incriminating ASAP" No one even bothered to check why those records might be there. They just ran to musk "I found it" and then they talked about it on TV.
All "productivity" sphere can be summarized in one sentence.
"Smile while you are ground to a pulp to make others rich"
