Federal government wants to give states more power to combat food stamp fraudWASHINGTON (AP) — Food stamp recipients are ripping off the government for millions of dollars by illegally selling their benefit cards for cash — sometimes even in the open, on eBay or Craigslist — and then asking the government for replacement cards.

Budget Deal Isn't Very Impressive

Frankly, I'm a little bothered about this whole federal budget deal. I'm not very happy with the Democrats.And I'm fully disillusioned with the Republicans. Lawmakers stuck their moistened index fingers into the political wind and acted accordingly. They knew that education was on the minds of the American people so they rushed in with proposals to hire 100,000 new teachers and modernize 5,000 schools. The Republicans gave Clinton and the Demos the teachers but refused to pass the $5 billion to modernize the 5,000 schools. Of course this makes Republicans anti-education, you see, which is what Clinton and the Demos will tell us all the way to Nov.3, which is election day, by the way. But if you remember last week's column, you will note that the Republican-led Congress passed a whole bunch of education initiatives.

Red Alerts Causing Overreactions

Ever since the 9/11 tragedy, we seem to have this penchant for overreaction. A couple things reminded me of that this week. First, there was the evacuation of Fort Wayne International Airport. A suspicious metal case was found in a bathroom at the airport. Airport security staff was told there was an aluminum case in a restroom in the boarding area. An X-ray showed the case had numerous electric wires inside. Security staff called the Fort Wayne PD's bomb squad and evacuated people in the boarding area and passengers in two planes. The bomb squad determined the device inside the case was a handheld video game. The passengers were allowed to return to the planes after about a 40-minute delay.Other passengers were kept out of the boarding area until police thoroughly checked out the area. No word on whether the kid came back to claim his Gameboy¨.I wonder if he flew off and left it or if he was on the way home.Either way, I bet he (or she) is bummed.

Council Tells KDI It's Up To Commissioners To Approve Funding

Roger Moynahan's pitch to secure funding for an enhanced economic development system, namely a full-time director and staff, through Kosciusko Development Inc.was thrown back by the county council Thursday. "It's up to the county commissioners," said Harold Jones, council president."We're not going to make a motion that the commissioners take a stance.We've done that before and gotten our hand slapped." Moynahan presented a Columbus newspaper article about Kosciusko County, "the state's economic development flagship," and an Indiana Economic Development Corp.graphic showing five expansion-retention projects, and the attraction of four new county businesses. KDI had a hand in these developments. Moynahan, the outgoing KDI chairman, has approached the council and commissioners repeatedly, for more than a year, to secure additional funding.
