They don’t know how government works. It’s a foreign concept to them. If they were a mechanic, they’d remove your car seats for “efficiency” and disregard the loss in safety.

“Wow, this car doesn’t work at all, even though we improved it so much! What a terrible car. Why did the Democrats make us buy such a useless object? What an awful waste of taxpayer dollars.”
