Well, we should consider privatising low-eath orbit operations, because private companies are growing reliable in providing low-earth orbit transportation and infrastructure, manned and unmanned. This includes space to ground infrastructure (sattelites) and space to space infrastructure (habitations and manned and unmanned vehicles). However, Military applications should be taken over by the Air Force (which already has a space program two-thirds the size of NASA's). NASA's deep space, higher earth orbit, interplanetary and interstellar unmanned science projects should be contracted out to Universities. NASA should be maintained as a national research center for space-based purpulsion systems and manned earth departure vehicles. I would say that this is a high priority in funding and law. This opens the possibility of increase economic growth in the present and future.
