To: Enemy Of The State
How much money is lost each year to food stamp fraud? About $30 million, according to the best estimate provided by the Washington Department of Social and Health Services.

It's a bit hard to tell, but I believe the "Washington" referred to is the State of Washington. There's no doubt that this kind of fraud, on a national level, is orders of magnitude bigger than $30 million.

After all, the article cites ONE STORE ALONE in Ohio that had $24 million in illegal stamps.

We are talking about a multi-billion dollar national fraud!
