Pork is a bridge to nowhere

Some called it a bridge to the future. Others called it the bridge to nowhere.


On Friday, Alaska decided the bridge really was going nowhere, officially abandoning the project in Ketchikan that became a national symbol of federal pork-barrel spending.

The $398 million bridge would have connected Ketchikan, on one island in southeastern Alaska, to its airport on another nearby island.

Rabbi reflects-pork is a bridge to nowhere. Give it up. Keep kosher
