4. DUPLICATION OF FEDERAL PROGRAMS. There are 1,399 federal programs just for rural areas. Thousand of programs passed by Congress — and immediately forgotten — do the same or similar jobs in many federal agencies. For instance, there are 50 programs for the homeless; 27 for teenage pregnancy; 163 job training programs; 90 for early childhood development; 72 for statistics; 341 economic development, etc, wasting untold billions each year.
5. FINANCIAL MISMANAGEMENT. Medicaid paid $27 million to individuals who were dead, according to a September 2006 survey of only 10 states by the Inspector General of the Department of Health and Human Services. Of IRS in-house thefts, 12 employee thieves were hired though they had criminal records. The Government Accountability Office said they could not honestly verify the nation’s books. Medicare paid 203,377 ambulance claims twice. Federal employees used government credit cards for such personal business as $3,000 for a breast enlargement, and $74,000 for exotic strip clubs.
