Is this the Norm?

[oldno7]

That's not how free government programs work. Anyone who qualifies gets the free money. The trick is just making people qualify.

So is this a stretch---
while you fraudulently qualify those who should not be, and accept this as the norm, you must accept those who suffered from that fraud(the actual mentally ill in this case) and the actions they take against society, no matter how grievous, as the norm?

The truly mentally ill do not suffer as they still qualify. So there is zero change in the level of help/funds they receive. It's a faulty line of reasoning to think there are $12 million dollars max and the first 5 people get their college paid for. This "bucket" is truly bottomless and anyone who reaches (or is allowed to reach) in get's money out of it. The person managing the funds get a bigger bonus for the more people he/she ends up giving away money to. It's perceived that fund managers are doing a "better" job by gaining more participants and as more people are needed to manage the endless government paperwork trails, they all get raises and buy themselves BMW's. One could even argue it helps the people who truly need help (better) because the program becomes more well known, as it becomes a bigger burden on society.

The people who suffer from this tactic is the people who actually pay for the program. Which is us, the taxpayers. This leads to the eventual conclusion that all government spending is a waste, and should be kept to an absolute minimum. As someone like me will always abuse the system if allowed, and your daughter should also!
