Nice When Someone Else Pays Your Debt To Society
-
Man, I'm getting harsh in my old age: A woman who owed a $3,000 legal debt faced prison, but someone stepped forward and paid it off for her, and I'm thinking that they should have let her go to jail. Here's the thing: She and her husband defrauded the welfare system. They got caught and had to repay the debt. Her husband died. She still owed the money, although she claims she thought her husband had paid it off. What seems to have gotten lost is that she did something bad -- ripped off the taxpayers, actually -- and now, because someone paid her debt for her, she's essentially gotten away with it.
