Fraud by Design: American Thinker ...”The question is not whether fraud exists. It plainly does. The more serious question is why it persists at such scale — and why the scale of fraud so often approaches the scale of opportunity itself. Fraud is not merely the result of individual moral failure. It is, more fundamentally, the predictable outcome of incentives embedded within the structure of entitlement systems. Whenever large sums of money are distributed based on eligibility criteria that are difficult to verify, fraud becomes not an aberration but an expectation. The potential for fraud in any program is determined by three factors: the amount of money available, the ease with which claims can be made, and the weakness of verification mechanisms. When programs are expanded rapidly — as occurred during the COVID-19 pandemic — the potential for fraud increases exponentially. In many states, unemployment insurance systems were overwhelmed. Billions were paid out before verification could be completed. Fraudsters — both domestic and international — quickly recognized that identity checks were lax and documentation requirements minimal. The result was predictable.”
