We’re #1… in pork barrel projects according to report

By Baron Sekiya | Hawaii 24/7

A new report published by Citizens against Government Waste listed Hawaii as the number one state for pork barrel projects.

Following the exit of Alaska porker extraordinaire Sen. Ted Stevens (R-Alaska), the state slipped to number four in pork per capita. Hawaii led the nation with $251 per capita ($326 million). The runners up were North Dakota with $197 per capita ($127 million) and West Virginia with $146 per capita ($265 million).

The report is titled “2010 Congressional Pig Book Summary” and you can get a PDF summary for free by clicking on the book image below
