Malone's programs have indeed been used as models by other states and the federal government. As recognition for his record of innovation in public service, Malone was recently named winner of a Pathfinder Award, along with Hillary Rodham Clinton.
When he first took office, Malone said he sought advice from leading investors across the state--including Harvard Management Company President Jack R. Meyer--on how to improve the Treasury.
Malone warned, however, that merely cutting programs does make for better government.
Malone likened the current program-slashing fervor in Washington to "going to your doctor's office, and your doctor saying, 'I'm going to do something to you, and you may die because of it, and if you die you die."
The second speaker in the Institute of Politics' Summer in Boston speaker series, Malone echoed the sentiments of former Massachusetts governor Michael S. Dukakis who last week criticized California Gov. Pete Wilson.
