If you've ever tried to use or know anything about government grants you'll find out that 50% of your time and grant money will be spent making sure you are complying with spending grant money.
Usually there will be some outrage over a small sum of money being used inappropriately. Benzes for welfare queens for example. The politicians will do something about it by putting in more checks. A few scammers will work the system. More checks are put in place. Ad infinitum. A few years later 50-80% of the budget to help the poor has gone into making sure they use the aid for what we deem appropriate.
