Why didn't we launch a voyager satellite every year for 40 years?

NASA insiders revealed today that the ambitious 'Annual Voyager' program was quietly scuttled in the early 80s, not due to budget constraints as previously believed, but over fears of 'cosmic gentrification.'
A leaked memo reportedly stated, "If we keep sending probes, the type of entities we attract might dramatically lower celestial property values."
The source, speaking on condition of anonymity, added, "They saw what happened to the South Lake Union neighborhood and decided to put a moratorium on all interstellar outreach indefinitely."

voyager was flung out into space using the gravity propulsion of a rare planetary alignment. doing that in other years would be a lot slower. your probes would be like 15% of the distance or some shit.
the actual 'true' plan for long-range probes was to fling several capsules around the sun several times and hurl them out of the solar plane using the most rapid gravity assist possible on a short time-scale. but it was cancelled in the late-70's due to budget cuts.
