One thing that should exist but doesn’t is automatic jail time for anyone getting disability benefits under false pretenses.
Here in NYC it is an epidemic. Cops, firemen and other city workers have turned it into a competitive sport. One fireman claimed WTC disability. He was found participating in triathlons. He said that he had to use an inhaler, though. Turns out he also plays on the NYFD ice hockey team
The system is being scammed by those paid to protect us.
Flat pay for all government workers, no benefits, no vacation days, nothing but one flat hourly pay. They want vacation days, take off - you won’t get paid for it. You want platinum health insurance? There’s the marketplace, go have fun. You want a retirement? Go right ahead and buy what you want. You want a fancy car? Buy it.
That’s the only way to clean up this disaster. And just think about how people are going to howl over $400 an hour public employees. Least no one will be able to hide the costs (and hide the embezzlement) anymore.
Have you noticed how many firms advertise on TV to help you get disability? Heard of Binder and Binder? They brag they are the most successful and hence the largest in country.
Couldn't agree more...
