PJ MEDIA- Congresspeople from both parties are celebrating the much-anticipated return of congressional earmarks. And if you think Congress has been spending money like a drunken sailor now, you ain’t seen nothing’ yet.
Earmarks are inserted into spending bills that direct appropriations to a specific business or entity without the benefit of having gone through the appropriations process or even a formal vote. They are an open invitation to corrupt governance, which is why both parties are eager to embrace them once again.
