Maybe some form of that idea such as no inflation adjustments for annual allocations so they have to use efficiency from learning or whatever. I also like expiration dates on grants.
I say whatever the deficit is from the past year gets an across the board equal percent reduction in the next year's authorizes expenditures. If not followed thru, the next guy in charge gets a shot at cutting expenditures.
How did PBS and NPR get such a large amount of funding to become obvious partisan media outlets?

I'm sure when they first got their grants, it was to produce shows like "Masterpiece" ... ie art... but those now get plenty of corporate backing (Viking cruise line I think) and the money goes to influencing audiences towards a political viewpoint.
