I'm not sure your reason is quite right, because it "proves too much". One could explain any bad law by the same rationale. With spending, if it's pork, that will get them more votes not less. If it's not pork, they can blame the wasteful spending on 534 other people, not themselves.

We are trying right now to pass redistricting in California. Iowa has had redistricting reform and I think the statistic was that three out of five of its congressional seats were competitive. In California, where we don't have redistricting reform, we only had one competitive seat out of 52.
both Nancy Pelosi and Tom Delay are against the California Redistricting reform so you know it is a good idea.
