feed trough
Animal dining container
A feed trough is a long, narrow container from which livestock eat or drink.
Troughs are typically open-topped and positioned at a height animals can reach: The pigs gathered at the feed trough.
Figuratively, a feed trough suggests easy access to resources, often with implications of greed or corruption: Politicians lined up at the government feed trough.
