Pennsylvania to Crack Down on Welfare Fraud

Considering Pennsylvania taxpayers are on the hook for more than $10 billion a year to fund various welfare program, it's about time the state focuses on ending fraud and waste, which are rampant.

Even if you catch just 10 percent of the fraud and waste, that's still a coll $1 billion savings to taxpayers.

You know this is a good cause but if you look at it closer it's it the kettle calling the pot black.
They also should look into the fraud and waste of our State Government I bet looking in there will bring up some big Fraud and a lot of waste but only the legislators know and we won't. So go after the welfare fraud but I would hope you feel bad about what waste you make through the years and I would hope someone up there on the Hill will look a little closer to this and start saving the Taxpayers of Pennsylvania some more money. I know one at this time lets get rid of the auto pay raise you put it in take it out. OH that’s right you have to approve this what I’m I saying, this would take years to do and most likely fail. So think about it for a while but not as long as Property Tax reform(35+years) please. Please have a Happy Thanksgiving and think about it there is a lot to DO on your list.
