At the end of the day, what is wrong with American checks and balances that people can come from third world countries and quickly figure out how to defraud the system of millions very quickly. 

Start posting mugshots. Some public shaming is in order.

The public shaming should lead to jail time and then to deportation.

This is why the state doesn’t want to turn over the Snap Benefits data to the White House because they’re is so much fraud and illegals getting it not citizens

This is why states shouldn’t have the option to turn over data or not. Either they turn it over, or they stop receiving federal funds.

Massachusetts is just Brazil, but with a few expensive universities cranking out the next generation of wealthy communist minorities.

Deport the families ASAP.
Serve Prison time.
Deport the criminal after release.

Rinse and repeat.

How does this go unnoticed for years? They were posting amounts way higher than supermarkets month after month, year after year and no one noticed?? Are those people who were supposed to pick this up still working for state?

They were intentionally not paying attention.

SNAP card holder buys $1000 worth of steaks at a big box grocery. Costs them nothing. Takes the steaks to the small grocery and he pays $250 cash. Sells the steaks at 25% discount to SNAP card holders. 50% discount to cash buyers. Sets up a food donation charity, then sells the…
