Now, realize that these are the government's own assessments, made by people who fundamentally believe in all the same things as the other bureaucrats.
What might this look like if done by a critical or skeptical analyst?
0.3% for any department seems almost laughable. I have >0.3% waste fraud and abuse in my own personal budget, and my incentives are fully aligned with myself!
I do wonder where these numbers came from. #1 in refining your bullshit detector is asking where those numbers came from.

0.3 percent means Transportation department is operating at 6 sigma lol

Their self assessment is 23 percent fraud and waste at treasury
