Welfare Fraud In Milwaukee

Here's a shock - people are committing welfare fraud. This story is about 4 sisters in Milwaukee. Between them, the sisters have 19 children. At least one of them lives in a house valued at $122,000.

The sisters registered with the state to babysit each other's children. As a result of this scam, the state has paid these four sisters over $500,000 in the last three years. Over half a million dollars...in three years...to four sisters...for swapping kids. You watch my kids and I'll watch yours, and the state will pay us over $40,000 per year.

All four would still be running their welfare daycares, except one of the sisters lost her license when her own 2 year old was found wandering in the street unattended. So now, she still qualifies for welfare daycare because she told them she works for a retail store overnight. She did not give them an address, phone number or Tax ID Number for the business, but they approved her anyway.

There are more instances of complete and total fraud in the story. The saddest part of the story is the state employees who basically admit they know they are being bilked by the con artists, but it doesn't matter because they say it's legal.

Really? It's legal for my brother and I to register as daycare providers and then watch each other's kids and milk the state for over $40,000 per year?

Remember, you voted for the government who wants to take over everything and run it as well as they run things now. You want your health care system running as smooth as the daycare in Milwaukee. You want your banks being run by people who forced them into near bankruptcy by forcing them to give bad loans to bad people which allowed the government to then step in and lavish my hard earned tax dollars on them.

Thanks.
