Welfare Dumping

Interesting topic that was brought up at the Coos County Democrats meeting today. It's called "welfare dumping". It's where a town sends it's welfare recipents to another towns so the new town has to pay for the welfare. This report on this issue [from New Hampshire Public Radio]makes it out to be an innocent problem of the system. Saying that people choose to move for cheaper housing. I disagree. I think they are encouraged to move.

Here is the article http://www.nhpr.org/view_content_pfv/8291/

I am looking for more information on this issue and on bills in the legislature.
