her father was in govt. i think it was some program where the govt provided subsidy for these homes and there is a limit to how much you can get .

and there were some that were supposed to be for military families but a bunch of corporate types, corrupt govt types and others ended up taking it .

i'm sure she has a lot of money that she stole from the people.
