Universal Health Care & Medicare & Medicade Fraud?

health care fraud
Bob asked:

One estimate states that fraud and abuse cost Medicare and Medicaid about $33 billion each year. The government cannot run these programs efficiently, so why is there so much interest in going to Universal Healthcare?

These articles show the idiots that got caught. How many never get caught? Don’t you think universal healthcare will be the same?
