RE :”Is welfare corrupt? Of course it is, and in a damning report last week, the Massachusetts state auditor, Suzanne Bump, rounded up some of the scams:
Welfare payments issued to recipients long after they were listed as dead. Multiple recipients using one Social Security number – and multiple Social Security numbers being used by one person. Electronic benefit cards from Massachusetts being used in places like Hawaii, Las Vegas, and the Virgin Islands. Tens of thousands of blank EBT cards missing from state welfare offices. Repeated requests for “lost” benefit cards to be replaced.
In a report that covered only a two-year period, Bump’s investigators identified at least $18 million in illegal or suspicious welfare payments. “It pains all of us,” Bump told reporters, “to think that the program's integrity is not being maintained.”

What did you say Liz, the Obama admin gives them a taxpayer ID, food stamp card , a voter registration form and coupons for Taco Bell when they make it across the border?

Dont forget the poor mans guide to Obama-care

FR POSTED BY John Semmens (semi-satire)----The release of the Mass welfare audit showing that over $2 million in benefits were paid out to deceased recipients initially sent Governor Deval Patrick into seclusion. Now it has him fighting mad. “First, let’s not blow things out of proportion,” Patrick pleaded. “In the context of the State’s $30 billion budget, the $2.4 million erroneously paid out to dead people is mere pocket change.”

The Governor’s adroit handling of the welfare scandal is believed to have upped his stock as a potential successor for embattled Obama Administration Attorney General Eric Holder in the event the President feels compelled to dismiss him for his part in several scandals and his perjured testimony in Congress.

In related welfare news, illegal alien and mother of seven, Marita Nelson recently celebrated her 20th anniversary of receiving government welfare. Nelson currently is in the midst of a personal crusade to convince as many other illegals as she can to sign up for welfare benefits. An ally in this crusade is the Obama Administration, which has hired recruiters to sign up as many welfare recipients as possible.

==========================================

Mass Gov Deval's "tolerance" was amply demonstrated when he "compasionately" ordered all Mass state agencies NOT to release evidence of the parasitic Tsarneaev family 's obsessive sucking at the taxpayers' teat to the tune of $100,000.

"After all," Deval sobbed," how were the Tsarneav brothers supposed to build bombs if taxpayers were not lending a helping hand to these persecuted refugees?"
