"the Archives doesn't generate revenue and hence has to bear the full burden 
of the mandated cuts."

Georgia taxpayers could, patriotically, shoulder this burden. Here in the 
Commonwealth of Virginia, "enlightened preemptive" legislative action has 
lessen the likelihood of the complete shutdown of non revenue generating 
activities and wisely shifted revenue responsibilities onto a number of 
activities that have more than adequate potential to be completely 
self-supporting; i.e. public TV/radio. But more work needs to be done (read 
"The Return of 1933" being written in "our financial times".)

"Someone needs to shut the door on the "fairness locker" and open the one 
marked "undoing the delusional." - Scrooge

A Republic should never be about providing for the public "wants"; but all 
about assisting and enabling the public in earning its "needs".
