There are always things to cut, but the problem is they all protect various special interests, and they all would rather do no cuts than have their buddies cut. So the deal is no cuts unless it's something like TOPS which maskes regular folks mad enough to tolerate new taxes to fully fund it.

never a shortage of rhetoric about "always things to cut" and "special interests"
always a shortage of actual things pinpointed as worthwhile to cut. even LABI reports and articles stop at generic shite like "put dedicated funds on the table", stopping far, far short of actually recommending the reduction of some service
perhaps the existence of all this cuttable stuff is greatly exaggerated by people telling others what they want to hear
