How did I become part of the problem simply because I became aware of this? I have no proof that he is cheating the system, but he sure will have proof that I wrote a letter if I do what you suggest.
Posting on the interweb is one thing, but sending multiple letters accusing someone of fraud is something else.
The irony is, that the guy would probably find an attorney to sue me for slander and defamation of charcter, Thereby, reducing that amount of time I have to earn money to send to the govt so that they can give people like this a handout. So, in effect, what you suggest would likely be counterproductive in the grand scheme of things.

I did it the cowardly way, and it worked. You don't need to put your name on everything. That's downright foolish.
All I did was cause him to be rightly investigated, and it worked.
I didn't put his name in the papers.
It is in fact your duty, especially if you are going to complain about it and rail about higher taxes supporting these people.
You are part of the problem by becoming aware of it and doing nothing,
if you are sure of it, yes similar to being aware of a child molestor, if you are sure of it.
If not, and you are just being told of a hearsay story, then say so.
