Message: [QUOTE="cuseinchina, post: 935541, member: 3079"] The time to take a stand against wasteful spending is when funds are being allocated to various pools not when it's at the point of commuting to distribution when the alternative is to let the money go somewhere else. That's like these southern states refusing free Medicaid expansion funding because they don't like Obamacare. They harm their neediest citizens, put their state at a competitive disadvantage for attracting labor, and let the funds go someplace else all out of spite. Every good republican in congress fights for lower spending but when the pork is already served you better take your share or the other guy is getting fat and happy at your expense. Why let the stadium money go to buffalo out of spite. They already took your money so take what you can get and fight the next fight against wasteful spending a little earlier in the process [/QUOTE]
