If lack of candor is a problem it's a problem. NASA can't sidestep it just because other parts of government have bigger problems, and larger wedges. NASA management culture really appears to need some overhauling.

I think it's cool that we can help our space agency by changing their traditions instead of just giving them a boatload of freshly printed dollars.

I agree with the Bad Astronomer:

I think NASA is worth the money. I am of the opinion that we don’t spend enough on NASA, and that what they do for the money they have is nothing short of astonishing. I understand the public grossly misunderstands what NASA costs, but I don’t think it helps at all for the top leaders at NASA to be saying things like this.
