It's not like people who don't qualify can just collect for free and not have to pay that back and meet other requirements for their benefits.

They need that sum total to survive, and if they aimed for more, they would end up with less. Should just be that you only lose it when your earned income is equivalent to the original sum you had when you started collecting. This literally happened to me. And then when you lose your social security, it's almost impossible to get it back.
