[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Racist? Where did that come from? I'm tired of paying for ill-thought programs that have a huge potential for abuse due to limited oversight. Did we not learn from the covid loan and unemployment fiascos? 
Not sure about your 2nd statement and how that applies. I am all for free education for all and there is really no way anyone can take advantage of going to a community college for free.[/quote]

A lot of oversight doesn’t necessarily make programs more effective though. I am fine with X amount of fraud and waste because of lack of oversight or a broad cash stimulus if it’s more effective on the whole than a program with a lot of red tape. People have an outrage quotient they can’t get over though. [/quote]

Also I feel like the Covid and unemployment loans worked really well? What fiasco? Obviously there was going to be fraud but that’s just cost. [/quote]
MD has the largest level of UI fraud. It took my friend almost 2 years to get her UI benefits due to fraud. Constant calls, repeating the same info to multiple people. It was a huge headache. And the PPP loan abuse was huge. I personally know one person who got 3 million and never had to shut down. They used the money to buy their normal supplies. No staff reductions were needed. And they are the first to admit they aren’t the only ones.[/quote]
