Reply to comment by Runnah5555 in Ombudsman: Maine's child welfare system needs improvement (ya think?) by IamSauerKraut

>Our society has deemed it acceptable for a program, that helps the defenseless, to be severely underfunded.

Has it found it so? Not sure that electing the same arseholes constitutes acceptance, but voices against underfunding child welfare programs are increasing in numbers and volume so maybe a change is a coming. One thing is certain: folks are beyond fed up with all these little kids ending up dead.

underfunded? Has anyone seen the funding?I am so sick of this excuse. It has been stated again ad again. Maine should not be rewarded in funding for such a shit program. There's more than enough funding, it's far worse than it appears. If 'funding' was the issue, at some point in Maine DHHS history they had to have some gain or become effective in some cases....nope. Maine is'nt capable of looking beyond the conflict$ to care about little kids. Maine is open for business, the system is'nt broken, it's going swimmingly for the State.
