'Highway' pork: No rep left behind

How sick is this? Of course, the Orange Beach anti-market crowd (along with the "pro-market crowd") gets its bicycle paths, etc., out of the highway appropriations, supposedly financed from the federal excise taxes on tires and gas. It is, of course, the case that the so-called transportation trust fund, always being in hugh "surplus," is being used -- "borrowed" -- to fund the welfare-warfare state.

Meanwhile, the interstate highways rot into disrepair.
