The State Financial Officers Foundation claims to be a nonpartisan, neutral body representing the guardians of state finances. In truth, the corporate donor–dependent nonprofit pushes a right-wing austerity agenda under the guise of fighting fraud.
No, it’s not. “Austerity” implies that everyone does without. It’s not that at all, it’s simply vindictive. They want to subject people they hate to “austerity”, while carving out exceptions for their friends (who they think deserve it more, anyway).
That’s what austerity is.
No, if you call it “austerity” you are at least trying to hide it behind a veneer of self sacrifice. These folks aren’t even doing that anymore.
I don’t think it has been much of a secret, they can’t get rid of these programs directly so they will try to deny them to the undesirables first based on fraud.
Yeah it isn’t much of a secret to anyone any more … anyone who is looking at it from outside anyway.
It’s like watching a used car salesman stealing money, bank cards and credits cards out of the pockets of a disabled quadriplegic sitting in their chair and no one wants to do anything about it. The salesman also keeps going back to the disabled quadriplegic to forge his signature, thumb print and photo to get bank loans and mortgages … and all the while, the bank knows about it, the companies know about it, the neighbours know about it, the police know about it but none of them want to do anything about it all.
