You must have your head up your ass to believe that the lack of funds for welfare is due to people described in the OP.

I don't see any difference between what the OP did and what a narc does.

My first conviction came from a shitty neighbour that believe smoking cannabis was wrong... didn't affect her... but it is illegal and she thought it was wrong then dobbed me in.

It recently came to my attention that some people I know are not only using the food stamps, but doing it massively fraudulently. There are four of them, living in a trailer- up to their knees in their own filth, hardcore weed addicts, each with a job at a fast food place within walking distance. These people would put pot before food, seriously.

So, they already bring in a good amount of money and not having to pay for food, the trailer nets 400$ for food stamps each week. I had never thought about it before because they never had any food in the damn hellhole, but then this guy asks me if I want to buy out his vision card. Then it struck me:

Here I am, sitting here about to go work one of my three jobs, I can barely afford my rent, car insurance, bills, while I eat my last gala apple and try to pick through the canned goods in my pantry to figure out how I'm going to make it until next Thursday (hint: I'll be really hungry) and getting ready to borrow 40$ or so from a girl so I can get a costume for this crazy huge Halloween drunk fest before they all get sold. Meanwhile, three of four pseudohobos just bought the Droid 2.

What. The. Fuck. I work 3 jobs, about 60 hours a week, go to college, and have absolutely nothing to show for it every item I have of any value my parents helped me buy save sub-200$ items like my speakers, glass coffee table, bong, and those types of purchases are maybe once a year for me. Every time someone talks about college they tell me how unnecessary it is and how it's not required for everyone to make a decent wage anymore. Nice to tell me that after I've enrolled and got in debt so far that if I back out now my every living possession and all of my money will be forfeit. I can't even buy new shoes in good conscience, and there are these people with two PS3's doing a lan-championship on their two 40+" flatscreens that they bought with money that should have gone to bills, food, etc.

I turned them in. I hope they lose everything, they deserve nothing.

wow OP your fucked

Why are you getting so jealous over what some degenerates have, do you really covet there material possessions so much that you have to fuck there lives over just to get a small sense of satisfaction that they will be a little lower to your grade of living condition`s now

There smart there playing the system it aint harming anything other then your ego, your a worse person then any of those greasy fucks will ever be cause your a sneaky little narc who likes to bring people down for no other reason then to make you feel slightly better about your own shitty life.

They're stealing from a system designed to help people. Not only do they deserve to  not get a fucking dime, they should probably be shot.

People genuinely need assistance and these toolbags are giving the whole system a bad name.

Oh no! You narked on them and totally harshed their buzz brah!

Actually they were harming everyone that lives in the united states... And yes, since you asked, I am a very jealous person. It's a petty emotion, but I am also vain. So there you go. Don't flaunt ill-begotten wealth in front of a vain, petty, jealous soul.

If we caught and stopped all the welfare fraud- a hypothetical situation that would be impossible to reach- how much money would we save?

---

The government also use your tax money for the murdering of civilians in foreign countries, campaigns of terror, giving weapons to other countries to create enemies, the drug war, soldier pay rolls, theft of resources, the list goes on

and if your gonna bitch about your tax dollars being misused, why dont you go after things that will actually make a difference.

Nothing you just said had anything to do with the arguments being made:

1) No one here has argued that because it is against the law it is therefore immoral, your counter-arguments to that supposed assertion are a waste of electrons.

2) No one here is arguing that this is simply about wasted money, a distinction that seems to be difficult for some people to grasp. This is fraud by some dipshit citizens against the rest of us, not the actions of an inept or wasteful gov't. Apples to oranges.

I read your entire post and there was no point. Yes the govt wastes money. Obviously the topic of this thread is one example of how we could waste less money. More legitimate pursuit? I don't know, considering I very likely caused an immediate measureable net gain with my actions.

I should become a fraud hunter - I could see it now - flashy graphics whizz around the screen as my portrait bobs up and some hip-looking ink (or blood?) splatters across the TV ... "Coming up next ... Jay THE FRAUDLLE HUNTRE!" with some music all like "bow bow ~ woo woo wooooo ! bow wo wow" - and then it cuts to me chasing something that's just off camera through bushes.

point being your acting like a who likes to narc people out that arnt really doing anything that wrong while hiding behind this idea that your actually helping out other people, and now you got all those taxpayers dollars going into punishing them

and you think there was immediate net gain
