Only the best - CA is good to be rid of her but...

Riffing on my post from two days ago - here is yet another Biden appointee with serious issues.
From the Foundation for Economic Education:

California Labor Secretary Promoted to Biden Administration After Overseeing Massive COVID Fraud Scandal
Millions of Americans have struggled financially since the March outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. But new reporting reveals that rather than successfully helping those truly in need, the California government sent up to $31 billion in taxpayer money earmarked for “COVID relief” to fraudsters and crime rings.

The Golden State has paid out an astounding $114 billion in expanded unemployment benefits since the crisis began last spring. Of that sum, officials have confirmed 10 percent as fraudulent. That’s $11.4 billion definitely lost to fraud. The state has identified another 17 percent of the paid out funds as potentially fraudulent, meaning there’s roughly $20 billion more in suspected losses.

And this is beyond belief:

In one particularly egregious example of just how easy the system was to game, the Golden State sent roughly $1 billion to criminals currently behind bars in jails and prisons who filed false claims. 

The author talks a little bit about how government spending is usually problematic. And then, the promotion:

Indeed, the aforementioned California official who oversaw this scandal, Julie Su, is actually receiving a promotion. President Biden has nominated her to serve in his administration in the Department of Labor.

Let alone a promotion, this kind of waste and dysfunction could simply never occur in free-market enterprise over the long-run. Any business that engaged in it would lose out to competition and go bust. Of course, there’s no such check on government bureaucrats.

Yeah - never efficient.  There is no reason for it to be.  Nobody is ever held accountable for waste and/or fraud. The solution? Get their grubby mitts off my money. Downsize the government.  Move 80% of it out of Washington D.C. and into places like Kansas or Missouri. We do not need what we have.  Time to get rid of it and get these blood-suckers out of the Federal trough.
