"THE FREE FUNERAL PAYMENT ACT"

First Draft alerts us to this bizarre story.

Apparently FEMA paid for the funerals of 315 people killed by the Florida hurricanes last year. Only problem is, Florida only officially recorded 123 fatalities. Quite a gap, there! "If you were to call around to all the medical examiner offices, people would say, `No way did we have as many deaths as FEMA is saying,'" said Dr. Stephen Nelson, head of Florida's Medical Examiners Commission. "It's just an incredible number -- a difference of 192. This is the Free Funeral Payment Act."

Sounds a lot like fraud to me, too.
