This research tests the hypotheses that a county which has more powerful legislators, or is in certain political conditions, usually receives higher portion of allocation of program spending. Further, different types of policy benefits induce different behavior motivations; therefore, the distributions of these policy benefits will be different. By using pooled cross-sectional and time-series analysis method, this research examined the distributions of different types of programs spending, interesting findings are found. Since the DPP government is a minority government, she will use the pork barrel project to build up coalitions in the Legislative Yuan. And the critical minority is then more capable to bring home the bacon.
