Original Note:
Cutting improper Social Security payments would reduce costs less than 0.002 percent. Improper Medicare payments are less than $100B, out of a total $1.6T. When politicians use the phrase "fraud and abuse," it's just a euphemism for cutting the benefits. https://www.crfb.org/press-releases/fact-sheet-how-much-waste-fraud-and-abuse-there-social-security https://www.forbes.com/sites/forbestechcouncil/2023/09/20/how-medicare-and-other-fraud-in-the-us-can-be-prevented/?sh=21f78e7a3c46
