Its a mixture of fraud on the government's part, their failure to properly check things out, and of course Citizens are known to commit it too--the difference is the citizens are more likely to face actual consequences sooner because they can't hide behind the organization...
And even when government officials are brought up on charges, they some how escape justice. Just look at Hillary Clinton. The woman is guilty of (at the least) not handling classified information appropriately, which carries jail time, yet she has not been charged and is running for president, plus all the other ethically questionable stuff she has been involved in over the years...Or the IRS who was found to have scrutinized right leaning organizations harder then any others--but they got away with it too 
The U.S could very well become like Greece if they are not careful about their debts and spending...
Smaller government is the #1 way to shrink the deficit, not a bigger one...
Move to the USA
Before it attempts to become a failed socialist utopia
True enough, though its usually or mostly the frauds are committed by the ones who are in power that means government and the people very close to it bc they have all the protection they need until the government seat changes lol.
Heh! This seems so familiar you should watch our news , its like our Opposition leader Zoran Zaev he got abolished from jail from the president bc he was hiding his affairs along with his own accused of espionage and massive corruption all the evidence is in our face and yet he still can't be charged bc he creates chaos in the country with his political party (the opposition ) and bc of outside forces
. I think if its anything that we all have learned is that politicians are always above the law
.
I know was I saying or implying that !?
. What I meant is that the bigger or more powerful the country is if it's in kitten load of debt to the way of bankruptcy it will either get great amount of help or they can even cut it in half depending on how it suits its allies
.
Literally every-time Lys and I talk on Skype its mostly to kitten about Taxes, politics, news and other stuff like that....
I knew it !!!
I was feeling the love between you my senses about politics and taxes were tingling
