The only thing that makes sense to me is that these politicians believe they are living in the end times. Whether that's theological end times, environmental end times, or political end times is up for debate, but nothing they do seems to have any kind of sustainability to it. They expect to be dead or out of power soon and are squeezing every last drop while they still can.

Mostly. I really wish people on the "left" would learn that when people voice such beliefs to believe them, that they're not joking. Edit: Oops. Just saw natch's reply. Sorry for dupe.
