Scammed the government out of $600K.

He's not the first guy to plead guilty, either; he's the fifth.

Makes you wonder just how much money the government loses each year due to fraud and embezzlement.

You'll have to ask Republicans like Newt about that. They're the experts.

In case you didn't realize it...the government isn't the only entity that has to combat fraud and embezzlement, etc. Any entity that has large amounts of money flowing through it has the same issues as the government.


Can it be done better? Of course it can...and should.
