You act like Illinois is at all alone in those rates of fraud.
Not to defend Illinois but there were a lot of states in on this obscene party.
IIRC, California confirmed last year it was closer to 2/3...that they knew of.
Here’s a very early estimate from when they thought it might be 10%. (still many Billions, for just one type)

Fraud article from last year.
And this is before you even get to the funds directed to Democrat-allied political groups.
Bingo. And the politicians got their kickbacks to be sure.
Yes, its all laundered taxpayer money.
That’s nuttin.
NYS makes IL look like a piker.
Heck, the state was allowing at least one major metro to use CoupFlu funds for sidewalk shoveling.
SNORT.
I for one, am shocked, shocked, I tell ya!
Is it still considered fraud when public servants do it...? 🤔
Yikes! “Illinois’s inspector general reports that the level of fraud it experienced was “unprecedented” and amounted to more than $1.8 billion lost.”
Thanks for the article.
