News@lemmy.world•Takeaways from the AP investigation into ICE’s use of a full-body restraint device known as the WRAP
58·1 year agoWhat do ICE and DHS say?
ICE and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security would not answer detailed questions from the AP and refused a request for the government’s policy for when and how to use the WRAP.
Nobody cares what ICE or DHS says 'cause all they do is lie.
And America wonders why nobody wants to vacation there anymore.

News@lemmy.world•Tens of thousands are dying on the disability wait list
2·2 years agoFound one for Employment Insurance in Canada … works out to less than 1% for 2017-18.
Public accounts documents released this month list more than 104,000 incidents of fraudulent EI claims totalling almost $177 million in the 2017-18 fiscal year.
EI spending between April 2017 and March 2018 topped $19.7 billion. The value of fraudulent claims amounted to less than one per cent of total spending.

1·2 years agoSorry, I can’t even remember what kind of program it was for. My ADHD just picked up on the number and logged it into my brain without a reference point.
Gimme a bit and I’ll see if I can find it.

News@lemmy.world•Tens of thousands are dying on the disability wait list
1·2 years agoYup. Afaik those numbers run across the board, although I have seen an insanely low number for one Ontario social program a few years back (like 0.68% found to be scamming).

The preponderance of shitty world leaders (over the last 40 years or so) is fucking depressing. :/

News@lemmy.world•Tens of thousands are dying on the disability wait list
50·2 years agoSo a bit more info on this … if you look up the average of the demographic that tries to game a system it usually sits somewhere between 2-5%. Unfortunately the powers that be have decided that even tho 95-98% of people follow the rules, everyone has to be vetted (and often denied) so the ‘bad’ ones can be filtered out.
Untold b/trillions are spent doing this, far surpassing what it would cost to just have basic vetting where people in need would be able to access funds/services within 30 days.
Edit to add – This is ONLY good for individuals. All corporate entities should be held to a minimum wait of 6 months to be completely vetted.

42·2 years agoHonestly, if they were that far ahead they wouldn’t be going nuts with the voter removal bullshit.
The orange asshole is scared he may not win, so is hedging his bets by having Black, Brown, unhoused and poor people removed (this list is who often doesn’t have so-called ‘proper ID’).
