Waste is wrong. So you fix it. You don't, "Throw the baby out with the bath water"!

I believe the BBC is under such scrutiny these days that it is being addressed going forward.

I have not seen any surveys done on what people think of the TV licence, but quite a lot of correspondence on these forums and elsewhere testifies to the fact that a lot of people resent paying for it. I can understand why, particularly if you don't actually watch the BBC channels or listen to BBC radio.
Do you realise that a proportionately minuscule number of people read forums such as this and other online discussion outlets?

And generally only the people who are disgruntled with an established entity tend to post. The vast majority who are happy with the way things are, have no reason to go seeking online discussions. Therefore, forum opinion is weighted and of no use for determining the true national feeling on the BBC.
