This is the Increased Budget Effect, as demonstrated in a Dilbert cartoon I recently read. Dilbert's project was given an unlimited budget, and as such other employees either sucked up to him, or threw bricks at him. The solution: keep a protective barrier of up-suckers around in order to absorb brick impacts as they happen.
