Welcome to this week in economic outrage. Every day there are thousands of economic horror stories where one just shakes their head in disbelief at the incessant injustice. To combat the information overload, we give you a financial follies reader's digest and how those in power could care less about any of it.
Consider the irony of companies like Walmart that economically forces their employees to apply for food stamps, and then profits from their food stamp dollars. That's not more public welfare, that's more corporate welfare. But now those profits are at risk, because the GOP's current version of a farm bill includes ZERO for food stamps --- meaning, 1 in 6 Americans could also go hungry.
