Adding more flame to the fire, my wife is an apt. manager that accepts section 8. One of the more recent outrages i heard from her is about an somalian couple that lives at her apt. complex. They are on section 8, rent free, all they pay is water, rest of utilities are all covered. The wife has a job making around 70k and the husband owns a business.
They get to stay on section 8 because they do not have to report their income. They were reported to the section 8 bureau and nothing is done, section 8 acted like so, what do you want us to do about it. Pisses me off to no end.
They only reason my wife learned of this, one of the somalians coworkers came into her office to apply for apt. The potential renter wanted my wife to report them. My wife refused, so the lady called section 8 herself.
