4. Bullshit. Incompetent bullshit driven by projection and amoral priorities.

Corruption in the regime is running rampant. They are raiding public funds, so Democratic-controlled places must be too.

Who in their right mind would assume high costs in NY must be fraud? You'd think they might spend a millisecond comparing the cost of living or the fact the state has a minimum wage for home health aides (still too low, but undoubtedly a hell of a lot more than in states without such laws).

Not to mention taking a look at the savings and quality-of-life benefits of enabling people to remain in their homes rather than being stuck in a bed at a long-term care facility. But of course, putting money in the pockets of the good, qualified people doing a tough job, instead of the pockets of long-term care conglomerates, violates their amoral sensibilities.
