When my dad died ss went into my parents joint bank account and withdrew the amount of his latest payment. It's not just fear mongering. It is possible. I don't think even this administration is ballsy enough to do it, though. The backlash would be enormous, and as another poster mentioned civil asset forfeiture already exists.
