Top two earmarks sound modest and legit on the face of it. Shipping channel and a naval training ship.
Quick math ...
500 politicians asked for the same amount, rounded upwards ...
160
x80
$13 billion.

Of course for the 2010 budget it was $398,460,640 by Ron Paul.
$400 Million x 435 = $174 Billion. Does that really sound good to you?
