QUI TAM LAW/WHISTLEBLOWER ACT

Politicians or PUBLIC SERVANTS get into deals with several businessmen in the course of their managing this business we call" governance". Governments are supposed to be given the cheapest deals that is why there is a need for bidding. Remember they are using money(TAX MONEY-we paid) to be able to upgrade the lives of their constituents. They were not entrusted these money to make more money to line their pockets.
In the USA there is a law called QUI TAM LAW which aims to protect the citizens(taxpayers), here represented by the Government, from corrupt deals or "kung nagpapalusot"-- erroneous transactions. If you know that the government lost money in a transaction(erroneous or otherwise) there is a venue for you to report it. That is our money! We have the right to know how it is being managed.
Defense contractor fraud, construction fraud, grant fraud, education fraud, public housing fraud, railroad fraud, and healthcare fraud (including kickbacks, upcoding, miscoding, unbundling, double-billing, cost-accounting, falsifying paperwork, over-prescription, medical devices, and failure to obtain proper documentation). We have the right to report all these. And if we succeed we have the right to be protected from retaliation.
Anyone or any company who has defrauded or made false claims and entered into a deal with the government will also be fined. The government cannot afford to lose anymore. In some countries those who claimed that their cement is of good quality and entered a contract to build roads were fined millions of dollars to be returned to the Government to make new roads. DITO SA PINAS ISANG ULAN LANG SIRA NA ANG ROADS.
Eto masarap! The whistleblower is entitled to handsome rewards coming from the Government or from the settlement. Nakagawa ka na ng maganda sa bansa may pera ka pa!. Sounds like good business? Post your mails here and we will make it a business to send corrupt officials and businessmen to jail. Quidale Joc Joc!
