I think to get an idea about how bad welfare fraud is, it is good to get it from the horse’s mouth. I met 2 County Eligibility workers a couple of years ago. They both hated their jobs. The recipients were demanding, aggressive and entitled. They confirmed that they drive up in fancy cars and clothes and demand welfare now.

They reported daily fraud that they could do nothing about. Though there is the 5 year window, this can be extended for any disability and a doctor’s note. This was well known and there are quite a few docs out there in on the scam and they write the notes. I guess the docs get some kind of kick back. Lots of back problems magically turn up right before the welfare expires. Presto! Extended another 5 years.

Here is another one:
My hairstylist owns her own salon. She does not make great money, but she gets by on a decent salary. She has been receiving Section 8 housing allowance for 10+ years, and medicare for her and 2 children. A couple of years ago she charged up her CC so she could get invitro fertilization (Medicare won’t pay for that….) and have a baby with the BF. Now, the BF lives with her and the baby of course. They don’t marry because it is not financially lucrative due to her government benes. Should we really be paying for her health care and Section 8 housing allowance? (before I get attacked by anyone for seeing the hairstylist….she is a very good one and most of the ladies know…when you find a good stylist you keep her…)

Whenever you offer free money, you get abuse. We should shake these programs up every 10 or 15 years.
