Can indirect cost funding be improved?
Like the tax laws many possible loopholes are in these proposed changes and therefore they have to be considered very carefully. If there is such a thing as a collective wisdom, it should be brought to bear on this problem. With strong and well-considered actions, which would be implemented in a controlled way, the mechanisms for funding research could be improved to encourage efficient use of funds.
