WYM Mod<p>Misleading claims about social welfare fraud spark controversy. House Speaker Mike Johnson's recent comments on Fox suggest significant cuts could come from addressing Medicaid fraud. However, the article highlights that most fraud originates from provider misconduct, not beneficiaries. This narrative raises moral concerns and contradicts the values of supporting the needy.
