That is just the tip of the iceberg.
The actual fraud and waste in government spending is much higher.
~~datahazard~~@fentasyl· Nov 19, 2024In 2022, the Federal Government Accountability Office found $247,000,000,000 in improper payments made across 82 programs, including $81B from Medicaid & $47B from Medicare.
That's $250B. In one year. That they know about. And publicly reported.

Moreover, much of the fraud is driven by organized theft rings from other countries, so a lot of it is not even going to American crooks, which is extra galling!
