Jasper and his law firm are waiting to milk the WSI for all its worth.  Corporate greed disguised as humanitarianism.

In my state the Republican Governor we elected pushed for and achieved privatization of and outsourcing of quite a few state bureaus and departments, it’s been profitable for the state. We went from a $2 billion deficit left by his Democrat predecessor to a >$2 billion surplus in the 4 years he’s been in office.

Proof that private entities, i.e. evil corporations, are much more capable of handling these tasks for a small fee. And if they don’t get it right, the contract can renegotiated and if necessary, awarded to another candidate. You just can’t get that option with a state agency, you’re just stuck with the downward spiral of burgeoning bureaucracy.
