BTW, its quite possible that someone might get pissed off no matter how
you do it, but that's part of life. The question is doing it in a manner
that only upsets few people, and encourages active people. If we can
vote in a board, we can certainly award some funds.
Are there actual examples in which the benevolent dictator is formally
involved in awarding money? I was under the impression that's a
particular task they keep a distance from...
