Caseworker Exposes Flaws in Welfare System

NEW HAMPSHIRE - Author Deb Shorter of New Hampshire worked in Human Services for a decade. This experience as a case worker provided her with valuable, first-hand insights into how the American Welfare System works - and how it doesn't.

Her first book, "Giving Away Your Tax Dollars - An Eye Into Welfare," delves into the twisted, turbulent and troubled world of the Welfare System, exposing who gets help, and who doesn't, and the reasons why. In the interview room of a caseworker, she hears client’s troubles and works her way through the government policies that determine if aid will be distributed.

"Readers will run the gamut of emotions as they read this book," she says. "They'll laugh, they'll cry, and they'll get angry. Then, they'll want to fix the system."

This entertaining and informative book offers ways to do just that, spelling out Ten Easy Solutions to America's budget problems within Human Services, especially Social Security.

Born in Amesbury, Massachusetts in 1961, Deb moved frequently as a young girl, first to Newton New Hampshire, and when her parents separated, to Haverhill, MA. She likes to say, "I worked my way up the state and back into New Hampshire, and kept heading further north!" She now lives in New Hampshire's beautiful North Country with her husband Ron. She writes in lovely a cabin in the woods called "The Pen Den." She is a grandmother of seven children, six boys and one girl.

She loves to hear from her readers, and enjoys their reactions to her work.

"They are my enthusiasm," she says. "It's weird how so many people love the emotional roller coaster I send them on - and that is EXACTLY what I wanted!"
