US Deputy Secretary of Health Jim O’Neill sparked widespread controversy after describing the US tax system as “rigged,” asserting that taxpayers’ money is not being spent in the channels intended for it.
“You pay taxes and health insurance premiums, but where does that money go? The vast majority of it is spent on scams, political campaigns, illegal immigrants, and large corporations that provide no real benefit to citizens,” O’Neill wrote in a post on the X platform.
He added: “The system is rigged,” expressing his dissatisfaction with the mismanagement of public resources and the lack of effective oversight of government spending.
O’Neill’s statement comes amid growing criticism within the United States regarding corruption and the waste of public funds. Last May, businessman Elon Musk, while serving as an advisor to the Government Efficiency Management Initiative (DOGE), revealed that some civil servants were spending public funds on renting luxury hotels and sports stadiums for private parties.
