Stuff like that eventually gets caught, then you have to pay penalties and interest. If they deem it to be outright fraud, there is a 75% fraud penalty. Oh, and interest accrues on the penalties. Even if they only catch one year of it, that one year could cost you more than you've saved all five years, depending on how long ago it was.

Obama ran on a platform of "I'm different than the guy you hate, so that automatically makes me a great person to be president, regardless of all the political bs and lies I've told in the past" and America bought it. Now we get to pay for it. Yay us.
