Huge Fraud Costing Big money
One a recent Judge Judy show, she encountered a young man who admitted to receiving $700+/mon disability from social security.
Since he did not manifest any disability (he looked rather normal to me), she asked what he qualifed for.
Answer: he was diagnosed with a learning disability. And He admitted to working on the side for cash, paying no taxes,so he was scamming the govt twice.
Then I found this post about fraud: http://globaleconomicanalysis.blogspot.com/2013/03/unwilling-to-work-1-in-4-in-hale-county.html
Notice all but one are red states.
And check the comments at the bottom of the article.
Fraud is breaking us!!!!!!

Re: Huge Fraud Costing Big money
Here is an interesting reply from that post:
Disability is on the rise because of another problem. This problem is it is a 8 billion dollar business for attorney's. We have to keep them employed you know. Most disabiliy claims are actually denied the first time unless a person is truly disabled. What people do is hire an attorney to get them on the dole.

Re: Huge Fraud Costing Big money
If he was some ne`er-do-well on disabilty "working for cash on the side" ...unless he`s some sort of computer consulant, it`s probably 20 bucks here and there, that would put him in the "47%" that don`t pay tax and votes for 0bama, that Romney was lambasted for shinning a light on.
These "red states" have knuckle-draggers too, not everyone in a red state votes Republican. It seems the bums get attracted to those "rich areas" like hungry cats at the front door, it`s just inthe "red state" the bums are still the minority. Go to Hawaii once and check out all the homeless panhandlers on the beach.
