Because trimming the fat doesn't get politicians elected. Politicians get elected by doing what's popular, irregardless of whether or not what's popular also happens to be what's best. And nothing is more popular to "we the people" than to have our politicians give us things while making someone else, i.e. future generations of Americans, pay for it.
