It happens all the time, your marginalizing it won't make it go away, it's the most common form of government graft there is.
Take for instance the furniture and office expenditures in the tax forms for Rainbow/PUSH (At least those available on the web), they are so inflated to the point of being laughable. Even if you threw out every bit of furniture they had every six months you couldn't spend that kind of money normally, and it has been proven that the supplies and services are being supplied by Jackson's own people.
