My entire adult life, the messaging from most politicians, echoed by media, has been urging austerity. Even when reporting surpluses.
Meanwhile the rich get astronomically richer, aren't taxed enough (or sometimes at all), are not made to pay back what they've stolen, etc.
It's remarkable how effective the messaging is in getting us to fight over crumbs instead of taking the resources meant for everyone away from the few greedy people who are hoarding them.
