Another deserving recepient

Jared Savage in the Herald reports:

A 65-year-old man on the dole also owned a nightclub, drove luxury cars and laundered millions of dollars as the New Zealand kingpin of an international drug syndicate.

Now Ronald Terrence Brown faces spending the rest of his life behind bars after admitting drug and money laundering charges on the eve of a High Court trial. …

All up, he laundered more than $4.4 million over a period of two years. Total money transactions topped $7.2 million. Not bad for someone claiming the unemployment benefit for 20 years.

While on the dole, the 65-year-old Brown owned a nightclub called the K’Rd Ballroom, and paid cash for six expensive cars, including a $250,000 Porsche 911.

He was on the dole for 20 years?? While benefit fraud is probably the most minor of his crimes, it reminds me why we should have time limited benefits (except Invalids)
