Not yet. But the article raises possibility of a rather grim future.

I read it all the way through. It raises it, but doesn’t justify it. As has been pointed out most of their spending is grants to other organisations, which they could cancel at any time. The article gives the impression all of that spending is on bureaucracy, but that’s just flat out not true.
