"The watchdog group Taxpayers for Common Sense estimates that 12 spending bills for this fiscal year contained 9,499 congressional earmarks worth $15.9 billion, up from $15.6 billion last year." Fox News

When will this madness stop?

When will they learn that America is tired of this spending.. We can not absorb any more DEBT.

This Government does not respect us. They don't listen to us.

Will we only watch or stand up and say enough?

I already know my answer.. What's yours?

At least it would a symbolic gesture to cut but realizing "pork" only represents about 1% to 2% of the Guv's budget. Our "leaders" are soon going to have to decide between cuts in defense or social programs. Forget about healthcare.

BTW, hello from LA.
