Sites:
  • Congress Goes Hog-Wild: Shows that the US Congress made an incredible increase in pork barrel-spending in 2000.
  • Congressional Porkbusters Coalition: A bipartisan group of U.S. Representatives, Senators, and taxpayer groups dedicated to cutting wasteful government spending. Since its inception in 1991, the Porkbusters have led the fight against "porkbarrel" spending in Federal appropriations bills.
  • Corporate Welfare Military Waste and Fraud - $172 billion a year: Documents wate and fraud in the US Pentagon budget, and how large defense contractors have ripped off the taxpayer.
  • Government Failure: Standard Pork-Barrel Waste of Our Money: A Libertairian oriented site documenting instances of pork barell spenidng, with political jokes for humor.
  • ISTEA: A Poisonous Brew for American Cities: Will travel be faster and easier in the 21st century, or will traffic be bogged down by a cumbersome central planning process that creates more urban congestion and gridlock? The answer depends on how Congress acts on the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act.
  • Kill Defense Pork: The Pentagon and its allies have been arguing that the military is starved for funds. Yet the defense budget, adjusted for inflation, remains at the level of 1980, when there was a Cold War, Soviet Union, and Warsaw Pact. Congress has only repealed the Reagan military build-up.
  • NASA Pork: Accuses NASA of terrible inefficiency and wasteful uses of taxpayer dollars.
  • PIRG : Cut Polluter Pork: Few Americans realize that the federal government spends or subsidizes billions of dollars on environmentally destructive activities such as paying corporate ranchers to destroy sensitive Western rangelands, providing tax breaks for coal mining and oil drilling, or promoting pesticide-intensive agriculture.
  • Sports Pork: Government subsidizing of wealthy sports teams is one of the most obvious and wrongful kinds of government waste, and increase the price of sporting events.
