I think, it is very interesting story to share. I know the democrats and social 
workers are loving them.  It is the democrats' job security.

Seattle welfare recipient lives in million-dollar home
By Eric Pfeiffer | The Sideshow - 4 hrs ago



A Seattle woman who is receiving welfare assistance from Washington state also 
happens to live in a waterfront house on Lake Washington worth more than a 
million dollars.

Federal agents raided the home this weekend but have not released the woman or 
her husband's name because they have not officially been charged with a crime.

However, federal documents obtained by KING 5 News show the couple currently 
receives more than $1,200 a month in public housing vouchers, plus state and 
government disability checks and food stamps. They have been receiving the 
benefits since 2003.

The 2,500 square-foot home, which includes gardens and a boat dock, is valued 
at $1.2 million. And even though the couple has been receiving the benefits for 
nearly 10 years, records show that they accurately listed the address of their 
current home when applying for the state and federal benefits.



A federal official told KING 5 that the couple likely took advantage of a 
loophole, which allows low-income individuals to receive financial assistance 
to help them pay their rent and move away from housing projects. However, the 
law does not require officials to verify what type of home the benefits 
recipient is living in.

As if the million dollar home weren't enough, the supposedly low-income couple 
also gave money to various charities and traveled around the world to locales 
in Turkey, Tel Aviv and resort towns in Mexico, according to court records.
