because the studies aim to help people with problems and the GOP doesn't like that. But bureaucracy should not be our brand. Conservative Pierre Poilievre promised to cut government consultants for the same reasons (politicos on the right don't want to solve problems, they want people dead or powerless). And it is always labeled as bureaucratic by conservatives. So if we can avoid that language the better. Our brand should be "lean and keen" Good Government.
