U.S. paid former Nazis $20 million in benefits, report says

A federal investigation reportedly shows the U.S. government paid $20.2 million in Social Security benefits to more than 130 residents linked to Nazi war crimes, the New York Times reports. The payments, much higher than previously thought, were doled out over more than 50 years, with some as recent as last year. Anonymous officials familiar with the report told NYT authorities couldn't stop people with Nazi ties from getting benefits unless those individuals were deported.
