Maybe I just don't "get it". I could never understand why America can't get term limits in place for senators, although it was determined and proven that term limits were a good thing with the presidency. I personally do not believe the philosophy of "keeping experienced players in place". I believe the philosophy of getting new ideas in place, bringing in fresh perspectives, and eliminating any system that serves only itself. But that's me.

That's what the government does, spend taxpayers money. If they didn't, you'd complain that it's being horded up and not spent.

If they spent less, and more wisely, then they could tax less - leaving me more of my money in my pocket for my family. And none for ewes.
And I know that Stijn is correct - pork is a bribe, wrapped in a social cause. I know we can never trim all the fat away, but too much fat causes clogged arteries and death.
