it's not that hard: my household has 2 adults and 2 kids. If we decide we're not going to eat at restaurants for a month, we'll save a little money. Simple.
a city government has hundreds (or thousands) of employees, systems of checks and balances, and hundreds of moving parts. They can't simply say "we'll just not do X for awhile to save money". It's not that simple.
To say "I can tighten my belt at home, why can't the city government?" is extraordinarily naive
