re: Fraud Should Always Be Prosecuted - But Access to Childcare is Vital to the Economy

Your argume seems to be similar to the lefts talking points on immigration.
It's not LEGAL immigration people are upset over. It's 10s of millions of ILLEGAL aliens that we have a problem with. We want daycare programs to be legitimate.
We get that scammers will try to game the system. But $9B in Minneapolis? That is almost certainly the result of a corrupt local/state government allowing it to happen because they want that federal money coming into their local economies - by crook or by hook. Whether they knew it was happening or just allowed it to happen by looking the other way, the result is the same.
Don't blame this administration. Blame the local government for allowing MASSIVE fraud to happen. We should all insist that safeguards are in place to prevent the Fraud and protect the future viability of the programs.

Having a mother and father at home is the heart and lungs to an economy.
Go ahead, chase the money.

K, keep us posted.
Access to childcare is not so vital as to tolerate fraud & corruption.
Look at Healthcare, an industry even MORE vital - it's chock full of compliance & standards, many of which CANNOT be compromised for the safety of the patient.
Childcare will always need plenty of oversight. And now, thanks to this story, it will probably need EVEN MORE oversight

you know what else would drop? Federal Income Taxes, that's what. Now state and local taxes may increase, but people have more control of what they're financing andd a closer eye on where their money is going.
People closer to an issue have a better chance of resolving the issue.

You are a dirty leech. Childcare isn't guaranteed like freedom.
You figure it out as a parent and don't require a crutch from the govt.

Quit trying to conflate a brazen fraud scheme involving dim-commie politicos in Minnesota and corrupt to their core Somalis with a legitimate daycare business.
You are too stupid to understand that what those people did in Minnesota has damaged the child care industry. And honest people would be doing everything in their power to distance themselves from the Minnesota scumbags.

Nobody is anti-daycare, you stupid fool.
Why can't you simply admit that the fraud exists, it's rampart, and it's overwhelmingly taking place in blue states and coordinated by the Left that you align yourself with?
I keep waiting for you to post something which contains at least a shred of honesty.

I feel sorry for you.
It’s sad that you spend/waste so much time posting something like that. The sad pet is that you must have convinced yourself that you get something out if it.
Value in trolling? That’s pathetic.
Pushing your insane worldview? The lack of impact is pathetic.
I hope you find real happiness in this world somewhere.

Babysitting your kids does not constitute as a daycare that should receive subsidies. These programs are a great gift to many but when those scums abuse it they destroy it for everyone until it can be cleaned up. I think at this point we learned that every single welfare and government subsidy program is being milked to the core with fraud. Not even sneaky fraud. Blatant frick you we don't care fraud.

My wife would not have been able to pursue her professional career without access to childcare, and many of the daycares we relied on when our children were infants and toddlers were small, neighborhood businesses supported by these subsidies.
Let us know when you and your wife have reimbursed the treasury for your share of the subsidies that you took advantage of. Then I'll give you an upvote.

No you haven't, you've seen people condemning the fraud but you don't like it because it's turning out that a LOT of the childcare centers in MN (at least the Somali ones) are nothing more than money-grabs. Because of the size and scope of that fraud, people are questioning the real (versus perceived) amount of need for so many childcare centers.

Thanks RFK for posting this. We didn't use daycare. I had no idea that subsidies were necessary for them to exist.
Of course, I'm going to fact check you....
ETA: Here was the bottom line for ChatGPT...
6. Bottom line
Childcare cannot simultaneously be:
High-quality
Affordable to parents
Fairly paid for workers
Privately self-sustaining
You can pick two without subsidies.
You can pick all four only with them.
So in practical, real-world terms:
Yes—subsidies are necessary for daycares to exist at scale in the United States.

You're a week late. The topic this week is ICE Nazis invading Minneapolis. MN Government officials were losing the argument on daycare fraud racism, so they have changed the subject to ICE Nazi racism.
Apparently, you didn't get the memo...

If a daycare needs 1 million dollars per year in taxpayer money to function, they are fraudulentt

Improving access to childcare through government subsidies has a profound impact on the economy.
If something needs a government subsidy to survive, it shouldn't survive.

Expanded access to childcare has also fundamentally transformed women’s participation in the workforce. This both strengthens the overall economy and allows women to pursue meaningful, fulfilling careers.
Not every lifestyle is for everyone. The idea that everyone is entitled to everything is where this country went off the rails.

Continue to prosecute fraud.
Can argue they haven't even began to prosecute fraud yet, that's part of the problem.
