Fraud is a government failure, plain and simple. The Pentagon's $35B in unaccounted spending and HHS's $100M COVID relief overpayment are just the tip of the iceberg. The Improper Payments Elimination Act shows D.C.'s wasteful habits: $281B down the drain last year. 

Medicaid's flaws let scams thrive, like New York's $22M fraud. Real oversight means cutting through bureaucratic bloat, not playing the blame game. 

It's time to slash waste and put taxpayer dollars where they belong.
