I mentioned Ohio, that happens to be where I live, and where I live is where I see the welfare travesty and it's typical of the whole nation. And this keeps people from doing jobs that are waiting here for the illegal alens. It's on topic, whether you understand this or not.
People that are too proud to do this work are never too proud too scam the welfare system. Why should they work? They don't have to!
Our welfare rolls in Virginia are far lower ~ in fact, all your state welfare people have to do to remove the cheats is run "Move Update" against their mailing/address lists for recipients. Federal laws existing since the days of Franklin Roosevelt provide that if a welfare recipient has a change of address on file they get cut off until they are re-examined by a welfare case worker.
Clue ~ welfare cheats ALWAYS have a change of address on file with the post office. It helps them cheat!
I don't believe Ohio has done this yet although everybody else did it first in 1997.
