Taxpayers again should be asking for the resignation of more government employees in an effort to save the State of Montana and Federal Taxpayers millions. Why? Because of the simple fact that around a dozen blogs and media outlet services that I reviewed over the past few days are discussing the fact that Montana DHS employees within the Child Support Enforcement Office are complaining that their brand new computers didn't have the same games on them as other departments. First the government creates entitlement programs that people should not receive in the first place, like the child support enforcement program that has severe overparticipation in it, but then the government employees themselves would rather sit around and play games and bilk the federal, state, and local taxpayers out of millions believing they too are entitled to something for free from the taxpayers. Even if these 3000 employees played one of the games for just one hour per week that is 3000 HOURS times their hourly wage that is lost on the taxpayer dime each week!
For those of you not aware, for every dollar that the State of Montana puts out in guise of "Child Support Enforcement and Paternity Establishment" they receive two more federal dollars. Naturally that means the state of Montana likely has 66% more money than it knows what to do with and likely has 66% too many employees if they think they can sit around and play solitaire and minesweep all day long. Their actions also may violate federal law and should be investigated for misappropriation of Title IV-D monies under both the Grants and Incentive payment programs. (Title IV-D of the Social Security Act)
Just a Sample of the Titles of Articles Talking About Montana's Oversized Government Bureaucracy:
In 2006, according to the Federal Office of Child Support Enforcement Preliminary Report, Montana blew $13,817,4221 in administrative expenditures of federal and state tax money for their fledgling child support and paternity establishment program. This should be a definite wake-up call to Montana residents and any taxpayer that these government programs are really free-for-all welfare programs designed to benefit bureaucratic growth. When you hear the "best interests of the child" understand that you are being lied to.Games on state computers stirs flap
