Willing to be your life on it that we can't find someone that is illegal and getting gov assistance?

Typically, any proof an illegal alien provides as evidence of legal status, regardless of its fraudulent nature, will satisfy social services agencies that determine the person's benefit eligibility because an intake clerk simply cannot make the determination that someone is an illegal alien. Therefore, the law is usually overlooked and illegal aliens manage to qualify for state and local benefits.

I wouldn't call that the law being overlooked as much as I would call it the law being broken.

By the illegal immigrant with fraudulent documentation.

Just like you can't blame a bank for being robbed, you can't really blame the immigration system for being tricked with fraudulent documentation.

There are ways for both to be made more difficult (higher security at banks and harder to duplicate documentation for immigration), but a law being broken isn't the same as it being overlooked.
