SC DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SERVICES RECEIVES FEDERAL GRANT
According to "SC agency gets grant to help with social services," South Carolina is getting a federal grant to, among other things, "help foster children turning 18 make an easier transition into adulthood." Some of this grant money will be spent on locating mentors for children who are about to "age" out of foster care to assist them in making the transition to adulthood.
On its face, this appears to be a wise allocation of limited government resources. But wouldn't it be even better if South Carolina would make even a modest effort to locate the 70,000 or so "Deadbeats" who owe approximately $1.5 Billion in child support to South Carolinians and make them abide by their legal and moral obligations?
