You know how much that would cost employers to sponsor health care if all ya had to do was have someone move in to your house?
The "norm" married couple also involves kids....another reason for the health care, ssi thing.
How could anybody detect fraud. You find out you have 6 months left to live and have some chick with 4 kids move in, should she be entitled to SSI and health care benefits because you said what the fuck?
