Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, and Louisiana ...........................Southern Red States!.................
I worked as a front line welfare caseworker for a few years back in the 80s.
There was one group you could count on to be engaged in this kind of systematic fraud—Samoans. They would establish 3 or 4 locations for extended families in different states, ship the kids around to each of them, and collect welfare in each state. Practically every time.
I learned the truth of the saying that welfare is for the greedy, not the needy. The people who were truly needy were often not savvy enough to manipulate the system to get benefits.
My experience went a long way to turning me into a conservative.
