We obviously have rigorous standards of accountability in place. There’s probably a thousand more frauds like this starting every year. It’s literally that easy. Make up a program and they just start passing out money.

Good grief. We deserve to be broke. Every voter deserves to not receive their Medicare or social security because we, collectively, don’t give a big rats a$$ about running a legit government.

Bad citizens get bad government. We are the problem.

They act this way because we have given up and simply don’t care.

We never have to personally suffer from a shortage because government just borrows money to make up the difference and we pretend we aren’t being robbed blind.

That's a weird worldview. I'm in no way condoning what the man did, but to say we deserve to suffer and struggle because of one man's actions seems to indicate that you have a wish to see such suffering. Be better.

Tell me, what is it that you do to combat these types of things? What is it that you think we can do to end such outrageous conduct? Run for office? HA. Become involved in the political process in some other way, which way would that be?

When all the options we have for politicians are bad, what are we supposed to do? Is there a magic pill we can take to make us better citizens?

I debated coming back at all. It was only because of a few people that I did, present company included. The rest likely have some idea of who they are.

I also missed reading the daily news. I cannot and will not watch news broadcasts from any source.

We can collectively enjoy all the good things without any of the responsibility of running it.

Sure. That’s EXACTLY how it works.

We can collectively be responsible for the debt, and pay the price when it comes due, but it’s too much to collectively create systems that stop hundreds of millions of dollars of our money walking out the door based on nothing.

People can rail on partisan talking points all they want, but whether it’s the forever corporate bailouts, Minnesota day cares, Medicare fraud, back room deals, Congressional stock trading, military contractor scams, or any of the other fraud and malfeasance, we are doomed financially if we can’t reign this garbage in.

We are not capable of governing ourselves in a sustainable manner.

It’s not unreasonable to look to the future when the system runs out of money because of these exact types of ineptitudes.

Is it a “world view” to say people that allow their money to be frittered away don’t deserve to have it?

And I'll ask again, exactly what does your plan to combat all of the ills we face entail? I mean surely you have a plan, right? I don't necessarily disagree with any of your complaints, but airing them without a plan to address them has a name. Whining comes to mind.

In my mind it will take a concentrated effort at rebellion. And that always ends with violence. Are you willing to sacrifice your safety or even your life if that's what it takes? What does a rebellion look like these days anyway? In the 18th century it looked like men warring with each other on a far more level battlefield. No such thing exists anymore unless one is sure that our armed forces would join the ranks of the revolutionaries. That is something that is highly doubtful.

We seem incapable of electing our way out of this mess. Anyone going in fresh is soon forced to realize that to get anything at all done, they must go along to get along. It doesn't take long for that dynamic to erode whatever ethics one may have going in.

Well, you are among those here with a fully functioning mind, so...

More agency wastes of money. So many billions that are virtually unaccounted for. Just passing out our money for so many anti American activities.

It’s as if it’s slightly more than an accident, a flub up, or a an oversight.
