Every new government program is a like winning a trifecta for the lefties. They get to buy votes from the beneficiaries, from the employees of the new administration and the unions that organize the employees. There is sooooo much resistance to consolidate government programs and eliminate waste. If they cut government by these means the politicians would lose their base.
I will say it unitl I am blue in the face. Defund the left...defund the left...defund the left.
