[lbo-talk] earmarks, Alaska style

[Michael Perelman]

The problem with earmarks are twofold.  First, that way that earmarks get 
slopping into legislation is not very commendable.  Second, earmarks are 
expensive to obtain.  Universities, for example, spend quite a bit of money 
for the dollar's worth of earmarks.
