Save a Trillion $ over 20 years HUH

Not the amount or anything.
Why is it governments, city, state and the fed show how such and such will cost or save over 20 or 30 years.
Changes OB is proposing will save a trillion over 20 years(OK maybe it was 10 years).
Eliminating the dollar bill will save 5.5 B over 30 years. In 20 years we won't be using currency probably 10 years. (If the US Dollar survives).
Changes at O'Hare will save 250k per year IN 10 years (Daley).
...

Palease they (No One) can predict out that far. Look at corporate America, 3 to 5 years tops.
Things change, government changes, law get undone, rewritten, added etc.

Why do they do this ?

Is it just sparkle, big numbers to sound good, thinking they can confuse the average citizen (they can't) ???
I don't think they should go total short sighted months or the year but predicting 30 years out ????
