DSS PROBLEMS CHALLENGE GOVERNOR SANFORD'S CREDIBILITY
Check out DSS problems challenge the credibility of Sanford's restructuring agenda.
There are some minor substantive mistakes in the piece. And more important from our perspective, we do not completely agree with Mr. Capps' main premise; while Governor Sanford has made some very poor appointments, the responsibility for this particular mess falls primarily on the Legislators who control the State's purse strings. For example, why in the world would the State spend untold amounts of State funds on the Hunley and another $12 Million on abstinence-only education before stopping the bleeding at DSS by implementing a computerized child support tracking and collection system?
Still, everything else aside, we think Mr. Capps is on to something important. Lucy has "some 'splainin' to do."
