“obvious to one who knows anything about the government, budget, public administration.”

What apparently is not obvious to many on the DOGE team and some here in FR is that the BIG FRAUD is not the Somalis, nor the poor who cheat. The BIG FRAUD is the big contractors in the SWAMP.

DELOITTE is the biggest fraudster in the swamp, I suggest. The EMPI Enterprise Master Person Index of its IES Integrated Eligibility System is in 25 states...MA, NY, PA, VA, IL, GA, FL, TX, CA...mostly the big states, not MN.

DELOITTE EMPI and IES fraud includes
1) Dead people known by computers to be dead who are in the database as alive and receiving benefits.
2) DUPs: Sue Smith, Susan Smith, Susan Jones-Smith have the same DOB, SSN, address and are the same person with 3 distinct IES/EMPI ID; each receiving benefits.
3) DELOITTE and other IT contractors, vendors, insurance companies, etc are paid a “capitation” for each IES member including the dead and dups.
4) Probably the biggest waste of another big vendor, Gainwell Technologies is in handling the dirty data it receives from DELOITTE.
5) Providers of Food, Medical and other benefits take advantage and are paid for services and goods rendered to the dead and DUPs.
6) Federal and State agencies spend much extra time and money due to the dirty data in the systems to contract to DELOITTE.
7) DELOITTE has other specific areas of fraud. But they are specific to a state (eg Pathways in GA) or much more complex to explain.
8) DELOITTE IES is a contract with a state approved by HHS with mostly HHS money, but also state money. So the fraud is on both the Federal and State taxpayer.
9) This fraud has existed and been known to exist since the Obama days. It was pointed out as design flaws in DELOITTE IES. DELOITTE consciously and specifically intended to have the design flaws in its IES. It is the SWAMP. It is not the fault of Biden, nor of Trump 2016.
10) What are the DOJ, HHS, RFK, DR OZ going to do about it?

11) DELOITTE is the #1 user of H1b. Many H1b work on IES. If that motivates some in FR, fine. But the problem here is not really H1b, it is the SWAMP.
