"Pork barrel" is a term used in politics, particularly in the context of government spending and budgeting. It refers to the practice of politicians allocating government funds for projects that benefit a specific constituency or special interest group, often with the aim of gaining favor or support from voters. These projects might not be justifiable based on their merits or necessity, but they are included in budgets to help secure votes for the legislators who advocate for them.
