How much are you willing to spend in enforcement to avoid $1,000 in
fraud?

About 5 to 10 percent of the money spent on the food stamp program.

So you want to spend billions in enforcement to avoid a thousand in

I meant to investigate cases of possible fraud and abuse.

But fraud and abuse are far less than 5% of the cost now.


Based on what data ?
