This would require government to be diligent with how they spend money. Governments are corrupt because corrupt people get into government, thus the importance of small governments to minimize corruption and waste. Bailouts first the rich, help for the poor, and nothing for the middle class that pays the taxes.

But people like Todd turn a blind eye to the inefficiencies and corruption of government. People like Todd love big government but hate greedy corrupt Republicans and turn a blind eye to the fact that Democrats do the same things and that corruption would be minimal if government was minimal in the first place.
