We're always calling for the government to undertake a thorough review of all government programs and services, figure out where efficiencies may be realized, and eliminate programs that are no longer serving their intended purpose.

But we need to focus program spending and productivity-enhancing areas that are going to get the biggest bucks for the country going forward.
