In the past few weeks, I’ve heard many discussions about “pork” spending in Washington. Citizens Against Government Waste has been active since the early ’80s, long being the watchdog for how our tax dollars are spent and misspent. Each year they issue a report that takes key votes and tabulates ratings for members of congress based on whether they supported or opposed wasteful spending.
