This is not going to end well.

House Approves $410 Billion ‘Omnibus’ Spending Bill

The legislation also includes almost $8 billion for 8,500 congressional pet projects known as earmarks, according to the Washington-based Taxpayers for Common Sense. Among the earmarks are $1.8 million for swine odor and manure management research in Iowa, $2 million to promote astronomy in Hawaii and $381,000 for music programs at New York City’s Lincoln Center.

Obama Budget Would Create $634 Billion Health-Care Fund

As they say, money equals power. It’s always a good idea to grant the Federal Government more power: You know, ’cause they are always so responsive to your local needs. Didn’t our founding fathers have this figured out so many years ago?
