I hate that that is how government budgets work... :/ What about bonuses if you DON'T use all the budget. Or trim it from the previous year.
And I'm not talking about when it's already too far gone and they bring in some third party that really knows nothing about the system, hacks machete like, and then gets paid for it, usually screwing things up in the process. But real people in the departments making smart choices year in and out. Even down to the scrub employee who might be saving the department money just by doing an exemplary job.
A man can dream I suppose.
