I’m a bit surprised Ms. Horne took a break from introducing cheerleader praise bills to actually focus on something important.

“We love to see corrupt or incompetent bureaucrats get canned, but too often the next bureaucrat in line is just as bad as the one they replaced.”
Exactly! This is why it is extremely hard to find any confidence in any system of politics when there are any politicians involved. The default judgment is corruption–and it should be until we someone proves otherwise.

The LAC audit will be released “sometime in August?” Really? You do realize this audit began back in January 2013, correct? Why are our tax dollars going to an agency that is either hiding the truth or is so incompetent and lazy that it really does take them that long to do their job? How can we demand accountability from DSS when the agency that’s supposed to be holding DSS accountable (the LAC) can’t be accountable themselves? It sounds like a change of leadership (not just the directors) needs to happen at both DSS and the LAC.

Hanak-Coulter “She said some of the heavy caseloads were caused by workers resigning, leaving county offices short-handed”
Lets fill in the blanks here… fired or bullied out and State Office did’nt give a F@#K.

County Offices begged for front line staff under Koller, Blanco, and Hanak-Coulter. Told over and over again more front line staff was not needed, but the answer was out of state consultants, more managers in Columbia, Regional Directors and Performance Coaches. What a bunch of idiots. Now they are saying “oh yeah” we need more front line staff after their poor management practices have been exposed. Nothing will change @ DSS until Hanak-Coulter, Regional Directors, and all the idiot managers they hired in Columbia are fired! Also, the Office of General Counsel staff needs to be replaced immediately. Most are nothing but fossils who are sucking SC dry!

I here ya…I watched for years while my wife struggled with massive case loads…begging for help. Working long hours, nights and weekends The new regime just kept piling on the work, along with the threats, bulling, intimidation and finally termination. Her Regional Director “still wet behind the ears” with no experience, what a joke.

If Sen Shealy thinks her position on this issue will help her get reelected in 2016, she is sadly mistaken. Lexington will fire her too. Your county, Sen Shealy, is rife with corruption in law enforcement, lack of jobs, crumbling roads, inadequate roads, no public bus service, high taxes, and lousy food. Fix it.
