[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 1359273, member: 7900"] [FONT="Georgia"][SIZE="3"]If earmarks are eliminated, then all funding will be passed down from the Feds through federal agencies. Now, can anyone give me a list of the federal agencies that you think would: a. have any common sense as to where the money should be spent, b. have any ability to keep from skimming money from needy projects to favored ones, c. have any ability to NOT be influenced by one man or political party? Then, once the federal funds reach the states, could anyone give me a list of the state agencies that could meet the above same traits? As for defense spending, in the past there have been instances where military projects were funded that the military didn't even want. .[/SIZE][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
