You’re right. They all abuse the system. Every last one of them, because that’s how the system is set up. Any money that’s made on the side (under the table) is NEVER reported as it supposed to be. Every single one of them know how the game is played and the social service people who are supposed to catch the cheaters are a complete joke.
***the social service people who are supposed to catch the cheaters are a complete joke.***
The social service people are in on the scam. Once upon a time, my older brother worked as one of them. When he would turn people in for fraud, he would get in trouble. They basically told him he was doing too good of a job, that he made other workers look bad. It was confusing, because instead of praising him for helping get rid of the fraud, he was punished. They finally forced him out, saying that he was harassing his female coworkers. It was them against him, and they won. This was in the late 70s, maybe early 80s.
Moral of the story, the only agency workers who survived were the ones without consciences. The others got out by one method or another. The system has been broken for a long time, and it was designed to be that way.
