It is so sad that when it comes to government programs, crime pays. To be political about it, Democrats who most champion these federal programs should be at the forefront of rooting out corruption. Unfortunately, that isn't the case
PALM BEACH COUNTY, Fla. (CBS12) — Florida is now at the epicenter of a federal crackdown by the Trump administration on Medicaid and Medicare fraud.
Dr. Mehmet Oz, the administrator for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), expressed his shock at the extent of fraud in Florida, calling it “out of control.”
In a recent post on social media platform X, Dr. Oz said, “We’ve only just begun to scratch the surface of fraud in our health care system. What I saw on the ground in Florida around durable medical equipment fraud was horrifying. The scale is out of control, and addressing this will require focused action from state leaders.”

cheats in military contracts.
Spending by our nation's leaders needs to get under control.
