Also, and importantly, those who received benefits and failed to notify DCFS will have to pay back the amount of benefits received.
If Bobby Jindal was not Governor, those folks would have been forgiven for stealing from the government.
They justified their budget,
they “transferred wealth” to the scammers,
and they made themselves feel good about themselves for “caring”.
No downside, if you’re a lib.
I am sure LA is not unique. Every state should do a similar check.
I guess they replace those thiefs/clowns with someone willing to work and uncover fraud...
Again, credit Jindal and his folks.
There were three bad apples, but they found them, and now there is some action about fraud with food stamps...
The disastrous legacy of Huey P. Long still lives.
So, if the people were dead, who got the food stamps?
They’re just party expenses. You know how they like to celebrate at funerals in Nawlins.
Still pandering to the Democrat voting base
**3,938 deceased people over the four-year period examined by the auditor**
Why weren’t the books audited annually?
“Louisiana spent about $1.3 million on food stamps for people who were already dead between July 1, 2009 and June 30, 2013, according to a report issued by the Louisiana Legislative Auditor Monday (July 7). In all, state benefits went out to 3,938 deceased people over the four-year period examined by the auditor.”
2 questions:
1. How many dead food stamp receivers are still voting?
2. How much kick back did the department that monitors this abuse get back from the relatives of the dead?
