> financially sustainable (and without sustainability, a political shift will kill it) Fiscally sustainable is a BS excuse often put forward by conservatives to not fund the things they don't want funded. Most things the government runs are not fiscally sustainable on their own, but they provide some sort of societal value. See things like the military, police, fire departments, etc... A political shift could certain still kill it, but let's not pretend it has anything to do with fiscal policy.
