Pigs in the Trough: Buy This Book!!!

The Pig Book: How Government Wastes Your Money

The Pig Book on Amazon


Examples from the book:

$50 million for an indoor rain forest in Iowa

$102 million to study screwworms, which were long ago eradicated from American soil

$273,000 to combat goth culture in Missouri

$2.2 million to renovate the North Pole

$50,000 for a tattoo-removal program in California

$1 million for ornamental fish research (what the hell does this even mean)

Pork-barrel projects and spending is the most destructive force in American politics and both sides of the political fence are GUILTY. Stop the spending!
