There is never a true efficiency problem.
It is the problem of goring someone's subsidy.
There are countless ones in our budgets.
But hard choices, and self-interest bias, results in an unwillingness to change the paradigm.
It prevents us from maximizing revenue, and adds in small but steady increments to the spending side.
When we have in place items that lower revenue and increase spending, all that is missing is the time factor that slowly but steadily catches us.
