How do we prove to people that $1.5t is going to fraud?

You can't prove it to a certain segment of people, it's like trying to talk about what trannies are really like where it's so totally degenerate and insane that normal people just shut it out and don't believe you.

Okay, so prove it to me.

From my perspective, I think social programs are a waste of money but I don't think they're all fraud.

You have the logic backwards.

Prove they work.

Show the results. For every dollar you TAKE from me, what, exactly are we getting back? Where possible please show me audits and the work of motivated regulators.

Finally prove competition and the private sector cannot or would not solve any of these problems given the chance.

This should be easy. The government should already be doing all of this work. The necessary reports and data should be all online. The legislative debate that led to these programs should also be easy to find and understand for context.

Sorry for the extremity of rhetoric but this should be table stakes for how our government works and it clearly isn't. So.. guess what you end up with.. fraud.

When the government takes $1t from you and spends $2t on healthcare, not much of that is fraud, though there will be some, but you specifically aren't getting equal value to what you pay in taxes. That's the whole point of ALL social programs. Someone is paying more than what someone else is receiving.

The private sector would be better. All social programs should be abolished. Taxes should be as low as possible. But that doesn't mean the spending is fraud.
