Default Tacking onto BillyTheKid's post

Billy is absolutely right about the government giving IRS refund checks to prison inmates. This is absolute fraud.

That does bring us to Medicare fraud - which rips the taxpayers out of billions of dollars every year.

When Rick Scott was CEO of his huge hospital consortium, it was charged and found guilty of massive Medicare fraud and paid a record fine of over a billion dollars - but less than it defrauded the government and taxpayers.

Rick Scott was CEO and said he knew nothing of the fraud. How plausible is that scenario? He then got a $330 million golden parachute when he was fired from being CEO - and got elected Governor of Florida! And we all laughed when Jesse (The Body) Ventura got elected Governor of Minnesota.
