No wonder we are running a two trillion dollar annual debt.
Exactly—we won’t know what the real fiscal issue is until all the waste, fraud, abuse and evil is removed from the system.
It may well be that we are fine when this is done.
Just one example of huge dollars that are on the table:
States are gaming Medicaid—and it is totally fixable by RFK Jr. making a few minor rule changes and then auditing the big states that are ripping off the system.
I could not find exact figures—but Medicaid is probably 10% of the federal budget—and about half of that is fraud (either state ripoffs described in the article or provider scamming of the system).
What ever happened to “no taxation without representation”? We have no idea where our tax dollars go, and if Pres. Trump and his admin doesn’t stop this we won’t have a pot to pee in. Here’s hoping he has great success, end this train wreck.
