Mitch Daniels went home to Indiana, ran for governor, got elected, and applied the same premise to state programs, reducing funding for those programs that could not demonstrate success, but this time, he very publicly increased funding for those programs that could demonstrate success, things like increasing the number of state troopers that they needed to have, reducing wait times at the DMV — and today, Mitch Daniels is the president of Purdue University, applying yet again the same principles, this time at the higher ed level, and he's done that in order to keep tuition levels for students there flat for half a decade.
Mitch Daniels regresó a Indiana, se postuló para gobernador, fue elegido y aplicó la misma premisa a los programas estatales: redujo los fondos de los programas que no demostraban ser exitosos. Pero esta vez aumentó los fondos, de manera muy pública, de los programas que sí demostraban ser exitosos.
