It bothers me, and has for some time aliveandwell. This **** has been going on for a long time and hopefully through the Internet and discussion groups (or whatever) the public will become more enlightened as to how much we are being shafted.
When I look at the list I see things that deal with nutrition, jobs and housing.... these are not things I find wasteful. bridges to nowhere are wasteful. $400 / gallon of gas is wasteful. Why sweat small stuff when you are about to see war spending go through the roof and it was already out of sight?
No, they all do it.
Some pork is useful, some helps repair roads and bridges, uses may include updating or repairing public parks, buildings and so forth, so, not all is bad.
Yep, it's been bothering me all my life.
In fact, it bothered me way before 20 Jan 2009.
