As far as the government’s concerned, every dime we make belongs to them, so this shouldn’t be any surprise.
A lot of Democrats should be scared of this line:
In court papers, the agency says the government has a right to collect from children if their parents received benefits meant for the well-being of those children.
A lot of people claimed their kids have learning disabilities to make tests easier and get a couple hundred a month in extra money taking care of a “disabled” kid.
The Republicans could come back in the future and say, “You’re not really retarded/ADD isn’t a disability, pay us back what your parents got”.
