Are any government programs not riddled with fraud and abuse?

Not only do these programs waste trillions of dollars, but they encourage people to be a POS. Most government jobs are already generous enough, but just flat out giving people monthly allowances is absurd. Is there ever a chance that we can roll these programs back? It shouldnt be that difficult to determine who is actually in need in this day and age.

Government by definition is fraud and abuse
Throughout human history

Possibly new ones that have not yet had a chance to be abused. It can take a while to find an angle.

Only the ones that do not have money involved.

It's a feature, not a bug.

No. Next question

No, so the best course of action is to vote out the only people who have ever tried to do anything about it.
Signed, board "libertarians"

The governments job, atleast currently is to pick winners and losers.
There was a Jan 6 victim that refused to “work” for the government while in jail, and I agree with that sentiment.
Unless it’s military or Ice. Government jobs are gay.
Sucks that foreigners are filling them but it’s all disgusting to me.

Whenever you combine a large complex system + humans + huge amounts of money you are 100% guaranteed to have fraud and abuse.

The govt takes a portion of your paycheck every 2 weeks. That is theft in itself

No.

I loathe the government abuse but any large company will have fraud and abuse.
The difference between the 2 are companies work to remove it. The government awards it.

The lobbyists and law makers custom build this into the "save all of the world's children" act before it is even voted on.
They already have the grift in mind for their newest programs.

None. I wish i was joking
Posted on 9/21/26 at 9:29 am to theliontamer
I wish I would have gotten into politics when I was younger.. seems like an easy job to make and legally steal millions of dollars every year

Our government is one big scam. That's why they never wanted to see an outsider come out of nowhere, POLITICALLY SPEAKING, and win the Presidency.
Their schemes work best when they have scumbag hacks in place like Biden or the dirty Bush family cabal whom they know they control. Not to mention underlings like McConnell, Thune, Pelosi, etc.

People almost always spend other people’s money loosely, and the government does not earn money so there is no accountability other than to print more.

If anyone else tried to do what government does.
Government would put them in jail for extortion.

I had an issue with the Federal Communications Commission. Our radio station had a pop/rock format and in 1971 the band FREE came out with their only hit: 'All Right Now.' The FCC threatened us because of profanity. One line says: 'Let's Move before they raise the frickin' rent.'
I took our best tech guy into the production studio and we put it on tape replacing the word 'frickin' with 'parkin'. The FCC could have charged us with something technical but government workers don't like doing extra work.
