Wasting Taxpayer Funds

Wasting taxpayer funds is typical of short sighted politicians and bureaucrats who run human services agencies. They fear someone will get something for nothing and refuse to allow humans an opportunity to get out of the hole they are in. These are the same liberals who encourage single parents, and freely promote privileges for illegal aliens. In New York City a few rational people recognized that some people waste more of taxpayer funds than others. They put these hard cases into apartments and gave them support systems. This saved a lot of money from emergency services especially. The use of motels is an outrage that should have been stopped many years ago. Putting people into apartments as stated herein is the economic smart thing to do. But with support else the same people may fall further into a bigger hole. One barrier is that the human services industry prefers to waste as much taxpayer money as they can get the legislature to appropriate. The cycle of campaign contributions given back from the money appropriated is the key. Until there are enough politicians and humans services professionals with integrity this cycle will never end.
