    your government at work
    $4.2 trillion of your monopoly bucks was given away by your benevolent masters due to the covid crisis .

    A new report says that more than $400 billion of it was either stolen or wasted ....and the figure is likely to grow,

    An Associated Press analysis found that fraudsters potentially stole more than $280 billion in COVID-19 relief funding; another $123 billion was wasted or misspent. Combined, the loss represents 10% of the $4.2 trillion the U.S. government has so far disbursed in COVID relief aid.

    That number is certain to grow as investigators dig deeper into thousands of potential schemes.
