I wonder if it is possible to see a need for infrastructure improvements in one’s state, and still vote against a bill because of the gross amount of pork contained therein? Knowing that in most human brains, infrastructure actually means infrastructure, some congress critters feel improving or rebuilding a decaying bridge is better than setting aside funds for high speed rails that aren’t going to get used. Or in CA’s case won’t even get finished.

Asking for a friend.
