What concerns exist regarding government payments and Elon Musk's DOGE initiative's access to information?

According to Peter Baker, there are significant concerns about improper government payments, with a Government Accountability Office study revealing that hundreds of billions of dollars are paid out annually that shouldn't be made. These issues include potential fraud and duplicate payments within systems like the Social Security Administration. The discussion raises questions about whether Elon Musk's DOGE initiative, which has access to sensitive information, will be able to effectively identify these improper payments or how this information might be used. The lack of clarity around information access and usage represents a key transparency concern in government accountability efforts.
