tanan dunay pro's and con's pero ug nagkalisod ang nasud, mas maayo nga controlled and accounted tanang gastos sa mga proyekto sa mga honorables-kuno .. ang problema, daghan ang dili mohatag ug accounting kay dili transparent sa gastos .. ang pork barrel can, and i think being, be used as an institutionalized source of corruption .. example ana: usa ka congressman wanted to buy a second hand but very good condition mini bus for his constituents .. of course, from the pork barrel .. the original price was pegged at a lower than what was written on the O.R. of course, the good congressman may not have knowledge about it, or may have approved it, nobody knows .. now, come to think about the big projects bannered by them ..
