Mr. The GAO numbers, not my numbers, believe that there's about 500 billion a year of fraud. So could we very quickly get 250 billion billion of that? The budget deficit is approximately 1.8 trillion. So that would reduce the deficit substantially. If we could get that 500 billion number, you know, I think it would engender confidence. You'd probably also go into a virtue virtuous cycle. (16:04–16:09)
