When it's in other districts, we can it pork of the worst kind and eviscerate the politicians who sponsored it. When it's spending in our district it suddenly becomes "vital infrastructure spending" or “key to business and economic development”. A big part of the problem is we the voter who never met a spending bill designated for our district that we didn’t like.</p>
