You just need to take. A closer look into suspected. People that can work but refuse to.
You might think this is interesting...
Welfare fraud accounts for somewhere between 3% and 5% of the total welfare budget. But that includes welfare scams, so it's not just people cheating the system.
They do investigate reports, but with limited resources they can only investigate viable claims. In 2016 they had 143,385 claims, but the wide majority were deemed false so they only opened 8,048 cases.
We spend about $77 million a year on investigating, but only save about $45 million. Meaning... it costs us more to stop it than to ignore it.
Leave us elders and the disabled. I couldn't agree more...
