The stated justification for it was lame, too. It centered around appropriated $$ from Congress, and it boiled down to "Spend the $$ or lose them." If they're going to be hypocrites, respect us enough to put effort into being hypocrites.

It is now to the point that politicians dont even try to cover up how full of shit they are.
In the past, at least they would pretend to be doing things for people. Now it is just a major money grab (power also).
There's little coherency or even consistent ideology - it's the politics of power and expediency.
