In a post last week I quoted a Republican conservative about a meeting he had with some irrational Tea Party enthusiasts:
I sat down, and they said on the back of your Social Security card, there's a number. That number indicates the bank that bought you when you were born based on a projection of your life's earnings, and you are collateral. We are all collateral for the banks...
More at the link. I didn't understand what they were talking about re the number on the back of the card. Today I found the explanation at Mother Jones. After citing some nonsensical and paranoid comments from online discussion threads, this explanation is provided by Donald Walton, a U.S. bankruptcy trustee, on eight "
key signs that can identify a subject social security card as either legitimate or fraudulent." Here's #7:
7. Sequential Control Number. On the rear of a legitimate card there is a sequential control number. The control number is a combination of alpha and numeric that bears no relation to the actual social security number on the card. However, the computer records of the Social Security Administration should show a correlation between the control number and the social security number and name on the card.
