Spot on. Nothing drove me more crazy than the fight over budget shares. No one could ever answer the question about what programming was missing, what produced the result or even the more difficult question of how you find the hard to get. Instead it was we just need more money. And there was the related assumption that all of the base spending was on the highest and best use and represented “bone”, as in you are cutting into bone when you question the base. Again lots to explore here.
