Bloomberg, fraud, Free Shit Army, Jamie Dimon, NYC workers, Obama, SNAP, SSDI
I love when brain dead shrill liberal ideologues are proven wrong time and time again. Government workers are drones. They are blood sucking leaches on society. When the number of people in the SSDI program skyrocketed after 2008, myself and a few other rational bloggers called it fraud. State loving Keynesian douchebags declared us evil for going after the poor and disadvantaged. How could we question payments to disabled Americans?
Looks like I was right again. A massive fraud was uncovered in NYC. Looks like Bloomberg wasn’t exactly running a tight ship. This is only the tip of the iceberg. There are shyster lawyers all over this country getting lowlife, lazy ass, free shit army troops onto SSDI. They are depressed. They have deep tissue pain. Their back hurts. Once you get onto SSDI you become eligible for Medicare. Once you are in both of these programs SNAP is a snap to get into.
Keynesian morons think the more we spend on SSDI, long term unemployment and SNAP the better our economy operates. Obama and his minions have encouraged massive entitlement fraud by pushing for people to join these programs and increasing funding for them. I love the picture of one member of the free shit army arresting another member of the free shit army.
The average person gets fucked by Jamie Dimon and his ilk in one orifice and gets fucked by government drones and the free shit army in another orifice. We’re running out of orifices.
Ex-NYC Workers Face Charges
By JONATHAN DIENST

More than 100 former police officers, firefighters and other city workers are accused of faking mental disabilities in order to get tens of thousands of dollars in Social Security benefits, NBC 4 New York has learned.
The former workers who claimed they could barely take care of themselves were, in fact, pursuing activities like jet skiing, fishing, shopping, playing basketball and even working in other jobs.
One police officer who claimed he was mentally disabled was allegedly working as a martial arts instructor, officials said. Another who claimed he could not work was allegedly flying helicopters.
One got benefits because of a fear of crowds and yet was found to be selling cannolis in Little Italy during the Feast of San Gennaro festival that brings more than a million people to the neighborhood. And another went on to allegedly run a private security company.
Many also allegedly claimed to be affected by their efforts on 9/11, yet investigators found many were not even near ground zero that day.
All allegedly got help gaming the system from the same two lawyers and two former police officers who allegedly took cash payments.
The workers were allegedly taught how to claim they were mentally scarred on SSID applications in order to collect $30,000 to $50,000 in benefits annually.
Their applications for benefits were “strikingly similar,” prosecutors said in court papers Tuesday. The applications often used identical phrases like “I don’t have an interest in anything” and “I am unable to perform any type of work activity in or out of the house.”
Applicants were taught to claim that they could not cope with other people or were so mentally disabled that they could not even prepare a meal on their own. They were allegedly told by the four ringleaders to look disheveled in their interviews and claim they went for days without sleep.
They claimed in applications that they could not drive, shop or use a computer, but prosecutors say many were observed driving, while credit card records show they were “prolific shoppers.” Further, some who said they could not use computers had Facebook pages and Twitter accounts, prosecutors said.
Investigators said one of the attorneys who allegedly helped run the scheme is Raymond Lavallee, who worked as an FBI agent in the 1950s and ’60s. Calls to Lavallee’s home and law office were not returned Monday.
Investigators said Lavallee would receive thousands in cash payments from successful applicants that were at times left for him in paper bags on a park bench near his office.
Law enforcement sources said the 106 people being charged are just a first wave in what is a growing investigation. As many as 300 to 400 other former city workers are now facing scrutiny.
Many of those charged were expected to appear in Manhattan criminal court Tuesday.
Manhattan District Attorney Cy Vance, along with investigators from the Social Security Administration, Homeland Security Investigations and the NYPD Internal Affairs bureau, were expected to announce details of the charges at a news conference Tuesday afternoon.
Spokesmen for the law enforcement agencies declined to comment on the expected charges Monday evening. |
