Fraud Nation

Americans want to help people in need, but when government does that, about 500 billion taxpayer dollars get stolen. - John Stossel 
It's how the system is designed, says the United Council on Welfare Fraud's Andrew McClenahan in this new video. 

• "You're measuring success by the amount of money you put out."

Because of that, government agencies rarely check whether their handouts go to the right people.
Minnesota is just the latest example.
Government officials didn't uncover that fraud -- YouTuber Nick Shirley did.

I say to McClenahan, "It's weird that a kid did what government investigators couldn't do."
"Articles back in 2018 talked about millions of dollars in suitcases being flown out of Minneapolis," he replies. "But it took a 20-year-old with an iPhone to go in there and expose it on Twitter."
