    Right. Inconvenient truths. Yet liberals acknowledge the fraud and waste, now they don’t want it investigated.

    A prime example of spreading misinformation is posting a tweet from Mike Johnson and representing it as a credible source.

    When it comes to Medicare fraud I guess the Republicans are the go to party considering that Columbia/HCA was found guilty of the largest fraud in the history of the program when Rick Scott was its CEO.
    During his tenure as chief executive, the company defrauded Medicare, Medicaid, and other federal programs. The U.S. Department of Justice won 14 felony convictions against the company, which was fined $1.7 billion in what was at the time the largest healthcare fraud settlement in U.S. history.[8][9]

    Thank you for proving what I wrote in post #19. I love Jasmine Crockett, and she explained it perfectly.
    You know what they say about leading a horse to water. We can give you the information you asked for but we can’t do anything else to help a closed-minded person.

    It states that the House Energy and Commerce Committee needs to cut $880 Billion. Under this proposal, this means that they need to cut out enough spending such that they could completely eliminate the other programs under their jurisdiction, such as Children's healthcare, and would still need to cut out money from either Medicare or Medicaid. So, basic logic and math would tell us that they are proposing cuts to one or both of these programs (especially given that it is unlikely that they will fully eliminate children's healthcare or some of the other spending under their jurisdiction).

    Are you capable of basic math or logic?

    Arithmetic seems to be their biggest obstacle to understanding this.

    You're a guy who voted for a man who publicly lied about immigrants eating dogs and cats. And who told the lie below. This from the former President of the United States.

    Do you not consider it the least bit ironic that you are complaining about someone "spreading bullshit" when that is literally what you vote for?


    “No transgender, no operations — you know, they take your kid — there are some places, your boy leaves for school, comes back a girl. Okay? Without parental consent.” He added, “At first, when I was told that was actually happening, I said, you know, it’s an exaggeration. No: it happens. It happens. There are areas where it happens.”

    My favorite part of this story was when deposed in an investigation of this fraud. He answered I can’t recall dozens of times. Then ran for governor of Florida based on his hands on experience as a businessman.

    Fraud, after many many studies, comes in around 1%. A 16% cut will eliminate services, not fraud. Who would be against fraud reduction?

    People use 7% improper payments, which includes underpayments, over payments. True fraud is low. Mistakes and rule errors happen. Reducing is smart but it wont eliminate 7% of payments.
