Why would she agree to speak with the reporters and be so candid/flippant? [/quote]

Because she thinks what she is doing is common, clever, respectable, and 'legitimate.'  [/quote]

Exactly. I have coworkers who talk freely about fraudulently attending DC schools, receiving WIC/Food Stamps, etc. There is no stigma whatsoever about fraud.[/quote]

Where do you work and what is your profession where people speak so boldly about their personal lives- multiple people especially. [/quote]

I work in SE DC in a social services profession. [/quote]

And your social service workers are talking to you about frauds fly receiving social services. I don't believe it, knowing the risk of losing their jobs. Your story stinks of falsehoods. [/quote]

Believe what you want-or need-to believe. I live in MD so the residency fraud doesn't impact me too much, so whatever. What currently irritates me is the woman who gets WIC. She may possibly qualify on her own, but her husband works for Metro. Anyway the point is that this type of fraud is not looked down upon in any way. It shocked me at first, but I see how deeply ingrained it is. These are not bad people committing this fraud, just regular people who feel like they are entitled to certain benefits they see others getting.
