Whoa... after reading this, I started thinking, “Hey, wait a minute...” Two people living together, maybe have kids together, but aren’t married. Couldn’t a “stay at home” mom technically apply for welfare? She’s not bringing in any income, right?

They visited Tel Aviv. Hmmm, wonder who they voted for.

But...the Dems can’t cut spending.

Day in and day out people say for their food with food stamps, & then they are able to buy beer, cigarettes, food for their pets, etc. No wonder they can also live in great houses.

People in TX have been taking advantage of a obscure law called adverse possion, which gives squatters the right to purchase the house they have been staying it for $16. There are a lot of empty bank owned homes that are potential targets. Sheriffs and their deputies have increased efforts to roust these low lifes and arrest them for trespassing (and anything else they can stick them with.

However, he says a “flaw” is that the program doesn’t analyze where people are living, even if it is at a ritzy address that should raise a red flag.

The flaw is it brings ghetto behavior into neighborhoods where people work hard to live.

My guess is this woman has a "boyfriend."

An older man, likely, maybe a widower. They probably use his funds to jet off to Tel Aviv, etc. Maybe they do not technically cohabit (which presumably would be disallowed by the terms of the state assistance?).

The article says she gets "disability" income. If she has no other income and no assets I guess she qualifies for food stamps.

What is harder to understand is how the state is willing to pay $1200 in "housing vouchers" for a single(?) woman. Is $1200 a typical rent for one person in WA state?

So basically, this woman acted as every politician in Washington has acted and for roughly the same amount of time, When will their homes be raided?

Nothing unusual here, simply our quota selected government employees doing their jobs, and I will bet they feel good about themselves.

Typical waste.

KING 5 News is not naming the woman...

I wonder if it could be Patty Murray?

Again, wrong target is set up to shoot at. If the gov wants to give you money, why turn it down (not my feelings, but feeling of most I fear). The target should be the person who LET THIS HAPPEN. Some bureaucrat in some office wasn’t doing their job ... they should be fired and fined for the money that went to these people, jail time and fines would have a way of keeping it from happening again, and again and again as is the case now. Time to start going after the ROOT CAUSES of these kinds of problems in society, not the “results” as set up in media headlines.
