At least 6% of Obama Stimulus Grants went to Tax Cheats

You guys really think the private sector doesn't have fraud?

Since surely well more than 6% of all businesses, corporations, and individuals cheat on their taxes in some way, looks to me like the stimulus distribution was ahead of the game.

If they're not receiving taxpayer money, couldn't care less.

Outstanding attempt at spin, but these were businesses with back taxes outstanding as of Sept. 30, 2009.

These weren't people who were cheating and didn't get caught. These were people who owed taxes, the government knew it, they hadn't paid -- and they still got stimulus money.

Like I said, we don't do government well at all.

We don't do private sector stuff too well either. The more we pull back government the more we fuck ourselves.
