The $190B in waste DOGE identified is just the tip of the iceberg - the real scandal is Washington's addiction to temporary cuts that let bureaucrats rebuild budgets later. The Emergency Spending Accountability Act (H.R. 3787) finally forces permanent offsets for every dollar of emergency spending, clawing back XX% annually over X years.

But let's be clear: past "deficit reductions" were accounting tricks. When COVID programs sunsetted, improper payments dropped $74B overnight - proof that most "essential" spending is just bloat waiting to be cut.

Structural reform beats performative austerity every time.
