Entitled fraud

 

"When I was a kid, my folks would always warn me about stealing from friends. Why? Besides the moral reasons, all it would take is one time that you would steal and then get caught. From then on, you would be considered to be a thief. Good lesson for the 'newcomers'. Now that they are outed, guess what? No more trust for them."

Is there such a thing as "entitled fraud"? Seems so. In Minnesota, we are seeing it play out, live and in color. This weekend, I read an article about a "newcomer" in Maine who was "allegedly" defrauding the state's Medicaid Program. His peeps wanted to put out contracts on the people who blew the whistle on this fraud. Why? Entitlement. Maybe that is in the culture of some of our "newcomers". 

We were recently at a political event. The term "fraudster" seemed to come up quite a bit. As the old saying goes, "the jig is up". How so? EVERYBODY knows about the Minnesota tax theft right now, and the good guys in white hats are about ready to pounce. AND - the feds are all over this fraud thing like white on rice. This is not going to end well for Taxing Timmy, nor many of the "newcomers".

In the DFL friendly Strib, there is an article about how much Trump is exaggerating the amount of fraud there is in Minnesota. Huh? There is an interesting slant. Why? The Federal Attorney for Minnesota knows about the current fraud, and thinks (his words), what we have only seen the "tip of the iceberg". Many others seem to agree with him.

When I was a kid, my folks would always warn me about stealing from friends. Why? Besides the moral reasons, all it would take is one time that you would steal and then get caught. From then on, you would be considered to be a thief. Good lesson for the "newcomers". Now that they are outed, guess what? No more trust for them. As the natives from old would say, "We will trust them no more - forever." 

Finally, here is a news flash. There may be some latter-day hippies who live in the center of Minneapolis who also believe that "newcomers" are entitled to fraud our tax dollars. However, the vast majority of citizens and patriots do not. We want justice, and we want true justice. Not this BS called "no cash bail". We want perp walks, jail time, and deportations. Entitled fraud? Not in our vocabulary.
