Opinari.net
Opinari - Latin term for Opinion. Opinari.net is just what it seems: a cornucopia of rants, raves and poignant soliloquy. |

Brendan Miniter is not sure that now is the time for one-half of a billion dollars in construction projects on Capitol Hill:
It's hard to argue against building an organized entrance point for tourists, especially after Sept. 11 and after Russell Weston shot his way into the Capitol in 1998, killing a policeman. But with money tight, the project seems an extravagance, if not a boondoggle.
I agree with the sentiment. However, I would settle for simply ending spendaholic legislators' abilities to add "pork" projects to necessary bills. This practice is, by far, more wasteful than anything else. I guarantee the savings would easily be in the billions.Labels: Archives_2003
