These counts are used and provided to the government for funding
This is one of the biggest areas of fraud within organizations that receive government money. They are so afraid to lose the money they have been granted that they inflate numbers to keep the money flowing when they truly don't need it.
A perfect example of this is spending whatever money is left in a budget at the end of a fiscal year on things not actually needed so that the budget won't get cut for the next year. Instead of promoting efficiency, wasteful spending is encouraged.

yep, I saw this at the federal and state level. On one occassion a 42" tv was purchased, to burn up some money.
Its sad, but there is no reward for agencies that save money, they are punished by having the budget cut the next year. The system fuels wasteful spending.
