Sure, there are are a small number of people whose abuse government benefits.

That’s not every one in the country and don’t make assumptions about how someone lives until you’re in their shoes.

I appreciate you trying to play the devil’s advocate here, but I’ve seen too much of this to look the other way as you seem to want to do.

That guy I mentioned that wouldn’t pay his co-pay..., I later learned he got in a year old Mercedes worth about $80,000.00 to drive away.

Don’t lecture me about things you don’t have any insight on.

This is a known problem in our area, that after hundreds of stories just like the one I told you, it’s reasoned to address the problem for what it is.

One ethnic group in my area with retirement age people in the home, are always on Medicare and Medical. They are referred to as medi-medi people, and the insurance people in the area recognize them immediately and realize it’s wasted time to talk to them about insurance. That’s any kind of insurance, health related or other.

If you do go to their homes, they have great homes I couldn’t afford. Again, new cars in the driveway. Nice belongings in the home.

To a household, this is the exact situation over and over. They don’t pay their own way. I can guarantee it.

Certain areas and the names are a real clue, you just don’t even bother to contact these people.

It’s unfortunate, but it’s the truth.

“Sure, there are are a small number of people whose abuse government benefits.”

There is an enormous percentage of recipients abusing government handouts. Every drunk and crackhead in this country is on disability, not to mention the generation after generation of minorities on welfare. Californians needent lecture the taxpayers in flyover country about being compassionate towards the less fortunate. We have the richest “poor” people on the face of the planet
