Fraud.

I see the claim of fraud being cried over everything as justification for cutting all social programs, to the point that the word fraud is becoming meaningless in and of itself.

Widespread voter fraud does not exist, nor were the daycare fraud accusations substantiated, but they sure were used to cut, cut, cut. Nick Shirley isn’t some great journalist, just some partisan hack like LibsofTikTok - one looks the other way when the cult leader pardons fraudsters, the other looks the other way when someone from their side sexually abuses children.

The truth is is that none of us have any money. It’s all the government’s money and government knows how to spend our money better than we do. I am a statist, believe it would be better if we abandoned the belief in any God for a worship of the state, but we need to elect Democrats to do so.

The felon letting states trying to handle daycare, Medicare and Medicaid is a disaster, as these things are better done at the federal level, not the state level, that we have an outdated Constitution and need more social programs, not less, and we also need less war to invest in our citizens.

It’s not fraud to look over our fellow people with tax dollars, which is not more important than other people’s well being.

Fraud, as being used, is devolving into a completely meaningless term.

That’s all I’m bringing over.

Is the fraud actually occurring?

If you want your social programs to help people, wouldn't you want to stop the fraud?

[Old n Grumpy]

we have an outdated Constitution and need more social programs,

Translated it means take from those who work and give it to those who don't.

[Ralph Wiggum]

That depends on the definition of the word "fraud".

I "love" comparing DUmmie claims to reality. I'm easily entertained, and DUmmie claims are an easy target. So, I searched uses of some form of "fraud" by me in the past 14 bdays. There were 7, not a lot, given my posting habits. Digging further, here are what was being described as fraud(ulent):

* Baltimore public schools, by me;

* The phony hospices in SoCal, by me twice and in an article title one of those posts;

* Criminal referral for insurance fraud by Letitia James, in an article title;

* Erika-Kirk-Haters' claim she's a fraud, in an article quote;

* Congressional Ethics Committee recognition of Covid-era FEMA fraud by Rep Cherfilus-McCormick, in an article title;

* Investigation of potential voter fraud in Riverside County, in an article title.

Contrary to EnergizedLib's claim, Nick Shirley's videos demonstrated the truth of his claim. Further, the SoCal fauxny hospices were first exposed by CBS News, and Nick Shirley subsequently made videos showing some of the fraudulent outfits.

As for my usage of various forms of the word "fraud", most were indirect, in the titles or quotes from news articles I posted. IOW, "fraud" is hardly a "buzzword" for me, and I also use it selectively rather than in broad-brushing.

Well, at least (s)he's honest about his/her government-worship. Did any DU-member take exception to this honesty?

[DUmpDiver]

This idiot would vote for Stalin.

[CollectivismMustDie]

Widespread voter fraud does not exist...

They are at step 2:



Anything proven going forward just moves them closer to step 3, and step 4 is then a given.

[SVPete]

The felon letting states trying to handle daycare, Medicare and Medicaid is a disaster, as these things are better done at the federal level,  ...

In real life:

* Medicare is a Federal program, overseen by Federal bureaucrats, not by states; this has been true since Medicare was created in the 1960s; if Medicare is F'ed up, the Federal bureaucrats EnergizedLib worships are F'ing it up;

* Medicaid was set up in the 1960s - Democrat Congress and President - as state programs; if Medicaid is F'ed up, state government bureaucrats - EnergizedLib's slightly lesser gods - are F'ing it up;

* Daycare ... is EnergizedLib tacitly acknowledging that real fraud happened? Without oversight by Democrat Goobernor Walz's bureaucrats ... EnergizedLib's slightly lesser gods?

You mean like racist, nazi, bigot, sexist, free shipping and car alarms ?
 

Widespread voter fraud does not exist,

BULLSHIT   

nor were the daycare fraud accusations substantiated,

Places receiving federal money to care for kids. But...NO KIDS. Substantiated ! About 100 times over.




The truth is is that none of us have any money.

It’s all the government’s money and government knows how to spend our money better than we do.

They can fund some more learing centers. Drag queen events? Maybe a few billion set aside to give Iran?

I am a statist, believe it would be better if we abandoned the belief in any God for a worship of the state, but we need to elect Democrats to do so.

. I believe you are correct  So, run proud and loud on that.

need more social programs, not less

, And $50 minimum wage, and free busses, and illegals should receive free housing, food, education...all by making the rich pay their fair share. Am I close?

and we also need less war to invest in our citizens.

Now how did I miss that?! To think I've always pushed for more war

Fraud, as being used, is devolving into a completely meaningless term.

Sure. I.E. Minnesota is one tightly run ship!

No way this isn't a troll.

In the off-chance this isn't a troll, 'fraud' is the buzzword for people who have been paying attention, and aren't stupidly partisan. And how would we know how well the government spends money when there's such a lack of oversight of where money is going?

[FlippyDoo]

Wow, the battery powered bunny DUmbAss seems to be busy. I'm not even going to address its BS about voter fraud because you guys have already done that, but I am going to show the DUmbAss how it could have made its first point 100% accurate...

The new libtard buzzword

Nazi.

I see the claim of Nazi being cried over everything as justification for hating and attacking people to the point that the word nazi is becoming meaningless in and of itself.

Actually, I think "Nazi" and "Fascist" are old and enduring Lib/Prog buzzwords, going all the way back, at least, to Truman when he labelled his opponent in, IIRC, the 1948 Presidential election a "Fascist".

oh, "energizedlibtard" is real, he only stands out because he's not 100 years old but he's weird enough:

At least this DUmp'Rat is honest enough to know that he's "libtarded". 

That puts him head and shoulders above about 50% of the rest of the DUmmies.

He's so smart his forehead out grew his hairline!

That's because you don't have a job and EBT is not a working wage.

I'm sure that you're correct, but today's libs have overused both words to the point that they've been diluted down to do almost nothingness. Here's what I'm talking about...
Back 40 years ago when I was in college, if someone came up to me and pointed someone out saying that the person was a nazi or fascist, I'd likely think that I needed to avoid that nazi a-hole. Today, if the same exact thing happened, I'd immediately ask the accuser if the person was really a nazi/fascist OR if the person just had a differing opinion.

The entire situation actually pisses me off because "nazi" is a strong word and, to me, using it to describe someone who simply disagrees with you is a slap in the face of the folks who had to live thru real nazis. Their use of fascist also pisses me off, but for a different reason which is that, in my opinion, the Biden administration did some of the most fascist like things of any US administration in my lifetime.
