Recipients of foodstamps aren't government employees and their fraud is individuals committing crimes, it's not government corruption. https://www.forbes.com/sites/simonconstable/2018/04/04/the-facts-about-food-stamp-fraud/ https://www.forbes.com/sites/simonconstable/2018/04/04/the-f... The takeaway is that food stamp fraud ballooned during the four years through 2016 but that it still represents a tiny percentage of the program. A corrupt solution would be punishing the 99.1% of ethical recipients through more bureaucracy and restrictions for what the 0.9% did. That 0.9% should drive 100% of their fraud policies separately without impeding the overwhelmingly legitimate aid distribution. When compared with those total figures, the fraud identified in 2016 amounted to a mere 0.9% of the total. That was up from 0.5% in 2012.
