This happens all over the country which is no excuse but with government running the show it cannot be stopped anymore than all the fraud that is within the government! If we are honest with ourselves government no longer does anything right or well!

You need to read some of the attachments. Many of the complaints refer to PRIVATE agencies that DSS has farmed its work out to to develop crony capitalist campaign contributors.
Privatization is the enemy of agency accountability.

That’s what the REPUBLICAN PARTY calls reducing state government take bodies and job position from DSS and contract the job out and receive shitty service.

Thing is, putting a twat licker in charge of the DSS scored Haley some Libtard points.

It doesn’t matter how the department was run, because Libs will always be crying for more money from the goodness of their heart. More money solves all problems, well, that, and putting a Liberal in charge.

They could be tossing kids into a tree shredder and it wouldn’t matter. The DSS is never going away, period. It’s now a tool for favor dealing and vote getting.

Wonder at what point Alford will awaken to the fact that she was selected solely for the purpose of going down with the shiip

Sorta like Ellis Johnson at Southern Miss. But I’m glad this lawsuit was filed and the state will pay millions to Haley’s handpicked lawyer friends to lose this case. I just wish Koller would somehow end up in jail over this.

Should be interesting to see both Haley and Koller testify under oath in their depositions. Once the case is over they should be available via FOIA. That is unless they settle the case before they even testify, such a settlement would be very telling in my opinion.

If it wasn’t all about the NUMBERS FOR POLITICAL GAIN I WOULD AGREE WITH YOU. Reducing local staff to bring in campaign donors family member to DSS state office, bogus contact where nothing is being done, lieing about hiring staff and there is no staff being hired. SC DSS turn over rate is sky rocking everyday More cases and no more pay. Living about employee in HUMAN SERVICES RECEIVE A 10% increase knowing it was temporary ending in JUNE 31. JACKASS BELIEVE that DSS find 25000 people jobs….lmaofa

You seem to be very pre-occupied w/ whether you see me as failing, or not. I can HONESTLY say I don’t, and NEVER, hope any of you fail in your personal lives.

I hate, I DESPISE, what you represent politically. I think you are unjust, corrupt and worst of all, dangerous to the country. But I don’t personally hate any of you..or wish you, or your families, trouble…

I pray your soul is well, but I hope ALL of your leftwing, America-hating, Greedy liberal politicians fail in office, because you hurt us all…But I hope they get jobs, and prosper as Americans, after being rejected by voters….

I’m not failing, thank God….but I have suffered under the miserable Obama-conomy as millions of Americans have….

Other than that: I have a wonderful life…and I’ve expanded to some business ventures that actually take advantage of the mess Obama has made, and I serve those he has damaged…..again: I thank God for opening those doors…

I’m very upbeat…and thrilled w/ the results of Nov. 4…and I think Obama has so damaged the Democrat Party…and McCain-FITS-Christie have so revealed themselves…Conservative is a growth industry…Thank the LORD….

So if your hope in my misery is what buoys you and some others, I’m doing well. And I pray I continue to be blessed. I just don’t think you’re going to get much satisfaction from my plight.

Another depressing aspect of this story is that it serves as a reminder of just how stereotypically backwards Haley and her cronies are. In the past week or so, news items have addressed disregard for the welfare of children, disregard for the arts, crumbling roads and infrastructure, and lack of regard for education.

The year is 2015.

And the state legislature’s cronies are not getting in on the band wagon to push for an increase in gasoline taxes. The Post and Courier ran a story this past weekend about the Charleston Chamber of Commerce advocating for a .25 cents per gallon increase in gasoline taxes. Those people are nothing more than a tool of the out of control criminal corruption in South Carolina. Everyone of them are advocates for the I-526 extension boondoggle because it will put green in their own pockets if it is built.

And they couldn’t have filed this BEFORE the election? Nothing to support the things “Face” mentions but plenty of bucks to give away to her drug company buddies–and others. In SC, “pay to play” means that the taxpayers pay and Nikki and cronies get to play.

I don’t personally know if DSS is a mess and these allegations in the body of the lawsuit are true or not, but based on what I know about other state agencies being corrupt and messed up, I would not be surprised.
.
South Carolina government is, and has been, for the most part – ‘fucked up.’ Even the state legislature is a cesspool of criminal activities. We must bring all of these government cronies to justice, and punished them. We can depend on no one, but ourselves. Certainly the local SC federal prosecutor and local FBI agents are not doing much of anything about the white collar crime wave in the palmetto state. And we pay them good money for what? To sit around, drink coffee and eat donuts all day?

Haley has no business being in charge of anything. And the General Assembly is full of psychopaths looking to profit from being in office. In a similar matter: Hundreds of child abuse and neglect deaths hushed up in Texas. Over the last five years Texas’ Child Protective Services underreported 655 deaths of children from abuse or neglect by their parents.
