and I never said there wasn't waste in "government". So there's that. Budgets are not arbitrarily cut if not spent the previous year. Line item budget spending isn't that flexible and easily spent elsewhere without going through an approval process. They're not spending snow removal money elsewhere without showing justification and, speaking from personal experience, those aren't just rubberstamped.
