MLA STANDARD: Aquino bloats pork to keep LP in power
"The Pres did not only want to strips his co-equal branches of government of their fiscal autonomy and power of the purse, he also BLOATED the pork barrel to prioritize not the basic social services but to consolidate the forces down to local government units, as evidenced by the P20B [allotted to the] bottom-up program next year from P8B this year," Tinio said. "The Pres has already vast powers. To violate the Constitution to acquire more fiscal powers is not right anymore," said Navotas Rep. Toby Tiangco, sec gen of the United Nationalist Alliance.
