Now, what is wrong with this picture?
The Social Welfare Commission was comprised of citizens, appointed by the Governor with advise and consent of Legislature. The Social Welfare Commission would then, recommend a candidate for the public office of Superintendent of Michigan Children's Institute. The recommendation would go to the Governor to go to the Legislature for advice and consent to the appointment of the Superintendent. Once the Superintendent was appointed, the final process was to take an Oath of Office to uphold the State Constitution, which was filed in the Repository of the Great Seal.
The Social Welfare Commission was abolished in 1965 and its powers were transferred to the Department of Human Services Director.
The Superintendent, William J. Johnson, has <a href="http://www.scribd.com/doc/19432093/FOIA-Michigan-Childrens-Institute-Production-of-Documents">never been appointed.</a> As a matter of fact, he <a href="http://www.scribd.com/doc/15041285/Attorney-General-Opinion-of-Authority-for-Office-of-Childrens-Ombudsman-to-Investigate-Decisions-of-Michigan-Childrens-Institute-Superintendent-">answers to no one.</a>
The purpose of this bill is to play clean up because the Superintendent, functioning in the executive branch, was making judicial decisions in granting or denying consent to adoptions.
The Superintendent represents the State of Michigan without being elected or appointed in being the legal guardian to over 7,000 children who are wards of the state.
The Superintendent, also, can overrule decisions of other states. He is not the Interstate Compact on the Placement of Children administrator, yet he assumes the duties.
The Superintendent is omnipotent because there exists no accountability nor transparency in his activities. He is held account to no one, not the public, not the law, and most certainly, not to the Constitution of the United States.
The bill needs to be be revised to simply eliminate and abolish the entire Michigan Children's Institute: William J. Johnson, Mary E. Rossman and Bruce Hoffman. The only useful function of MCI is to add another layer to cover up Medicaid fraud, and various other types of federal funding fraud.
Below, is an in depth examination of just one of Michigan's revenue maximizing schemes called Michigan Children's Institute.
