So, instead of broad sweeping accusations, please tell us where the pork is? What appropriations in the bill do you consider "pork", and what percentage of the total package do those amount to? Moreover, what is your idea of a better alternative to stimulus? Or do you think the government should Hoover and do-nothing us through it?
