Patience, grasshopper. 30% is a start ... and, according to the article, by 2009 it will be ZERO. Sounds reasonable. Here's what the article says:

The Administration’s budget proposal would rescind more than $100 million in federal funding for public broadcasting over FY2007 and FY2008. Lawson said: “In addition to drastic cuts over the next two years, the budget proposes no federal funding for FY2009. With this tactic, the Administration may be laying the foundation for the elimination of all federal funding for public broadcasting.”

Now ... doesn't that sound good?

Whew - note to self, read whole article before commenting. But, of course, public broadcasting is just a drop in the bucket. Good place to start, though. The only reason to listen to NPR is if you need an emetic.
