No, our Constitution states that Congress shall provide post roads. In present-day that means freeways. It's not pork. How do you think people across the nation get stuff shipped to them that arrived in the Port of Long Beach? Besides, L.A. and SoCal in general might have the highest concentration of freeways. Thank you for your tax dollars.
