When you find out that public defecation and urination are now lawfully protected rights, you thought that was the lowest the crazies in California couldn’t stoop any lower.
Then we find out that open theft at grocery and department stores is also legal, just as long as the total of stolen goods is under $950.
But nothing could possibly top California borrowing billions to keep government healthcare rolling along, right? Oops, I forgot to add that these billions are not only for legitimate residents of the Golden State, but also for millions of illegal aliens sucking off of the California taxpayers.
If you honestly thought these vapid clowns couldn’t do any further harm to their own people… it just became time to guess again.
As reporter Floyd Buford of the DailyCaller.com is noting (emphasis mine);
A Democratic lawmaker in California is pushing legislation that would decriminalize most welfare fraud.
State Senator Lola Smallwood-Cuevas recently introduced SB 560, a bill that would eliminate criminal penalties for instances of welfare fraud involving less than $25,000.
Welfare fraud in California is regularly reported but rarely prosecuted, according to data from the California Department of Social Services (CDSS). In Los Angeles County alone, investigators identified fraud in more than 5,000 cases, but only referred about 200 of them to the local district attorney’s office for prosecution.
Federal law enforcement has tried to fill the void left by state prosecutors. Earlier this year, multiple federal agencies busted five foreign nationals in Los Angeles who were using counterfeit EBT cards to steal from poor families. The Department of Justice (DOJ) said $181 million had been stolen from EBT beneficiaries in California between 2022-2024, and the victims are usually “low-income families who depend on EBT benefits to buy food and other household necessities.” Last year, DOJ arrested seven foreign nationals in San Diego for the same crime.
