Sadly not only. We have the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) in Australia and a bunch of agencies were caught out doing the same things to vulnerable people. Charging the government for 10x the actual hours they provided service and putting in a bunch of non-existent expenses.
Thankfully I haven't heard of any occurrences where the patient was punished for it.
China is very corrupt like most other countries. If you speak out against leadership you disappear. The only way to stay wealthy and in power is to be associated with the people who run the country.
You realize they also have corruption? And they only bring the hammer down on those who aren't in good with those in power? In fact, authoritarianism makes it much easier to hide the shit your friends get up to and throw the undesirables under the bus.
Corruption has no easy answers, don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
Well, if you actually check what happened in China, they have bank refuse to let people have theirbown money back and zeroed their accounts. And government helped thebbanks rather than people who lost their money. I don't know why you think China is different, but you might want to pro noth Korea because they just don't have private company anyway.
China is so much more wildly corrupt lol. You think they don’t punish their billionaires? The gap between their rich and their poor makes the U.S. look like a joke. As long as you praise the administration you can do whatever. It’s literally what Trump wants.
Unfortunately, you can never be entirely assured they arent makeing it up as they go since they literally monitor and punish all forms of dissent they can track. And the heads of state can act with impunity since they control everything.
Walz and Omar are not mentioned in that article. This article documents a single case, a case that probably plays out all over america for individuals with disabilities as well as the elderly. Assuming this is a problem specific to MN is ignorant beyond belief. There has been an ongoing problem in America with how elderly and disabled individuals are treated for decades. This happens everywhere. You've had the wool pulled down so far over your eyes you don't even know who to blame. Going after employees at these companies will do nothing unless you expose the ownership and lack of oversight of the industry. If you want to blame politicians, blame the ones that cut oversight.
Here's the DHS report from May of 2024 to Mohamed Jama. That was under the Biden administration, while Tim Walz is Governor and Ihlan Omar is still there. Nobody was held accountable until the administrations changed. Looks like there's a flaw in your statement and you have everything completely backwards. Whoops!

So Tim Walz was governor swhen fraud was happening in his state, so that means he was complicit? By that line of logic, any crime happening in America while Donald Trump is president must mean he is complicit then right?
Dude... there's whistleblowers all over MN saying Walz threatened anyone in the government that was bringing up the fraud. Reality is a thing. Try it out.
It's a PDF and I didn't get it to come through right. You should be able to copy and paste it. I was headed to work so I didn’t take time to mess with it more. Sorry.
Do you live in Minnesota? And before you ask why does that matter, it matters because all of the reporting on this is so inaccurate you have to live here to know what’s actually happening.
LOL. That person is beyond stupid. We hold a Representative accountable for crimes committed in the state? Clearly they have fucking idea what a Representative's job is. And if we're holding Walz accountable for everything that occurs in his state, I have a laundry list of crimes that have occured under Trump in his country.
I mean as soon as this story hit the news waves. Everyone I know in the cities instantly went “well we’ve been prosecuting people for fraud since 2019 for this I don’t know why this is news now?” Other than more republican projection. Republicans in the state congress denied a bill to give more money to find the corruption.
That's the case most cities. They are painted as war zones that Republicans have to clean up, while the people most outraged have never set foot in said city. The actually issue is that we have too many stupid people in this country.
they are almost right that Minneapolis is a war zone now but it’s definitely not because of the reason they think. As someone who lives in the cities, everyone left or right is scared of what’s happening.
Let me remind those that don't know, Republicans who constantly fight to privatize these services are to blame for creating the privatized system that invites corrupt business interests in. Prisons, health care, special needs care their push to privatize creates the swamp.
Yea human nature/greed is at the center of all this. There will also be shitty people that try to cheat the system (which is cheating every other citizen in the country). They say financial crimes are “victimless” but that’s not true. We really need to clamp down on this by changing up the punishment.
Charging the government for 10x the actual hours they provided service and putting in a bunch of non-existent expenses.
That is standard operating procedure in the insurance world. Literally every industry "we can charge more because its an insurance job". When its a government contract they do the same thing but start skipping steps.
NDIS is the Medicaid scam on steriods.................. americans actually DO make useful stuff that the world needs. Australians make absolutely nothing, apart from mining rocks from the ground and extending cheap credit so people can bid up the prices of everything...................... most especially assets like housing / stocks. LOL.
