In fact, recent statistics show that LESS THAN 2% of people in the US Defraud Welfare.
In the UK , 2 years ago over 56,493 people were found to be defrauding the welfare system. Now compare this to the other 5.8 million people who were on some form of Welfare and you end up with less than 1%. So this is a myth that everyone defrauds welfare, and that the problem is a major one. When hard times hit, strangely, people blame the poor. The real leaking in the system is quite firmly at the top end and in Corporate tax loopholes etc. but many focus on the poor, and those on welfare benefits who need those benefits just to survive. It's totally stupid, in my view. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:364411 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
