The top five stories worth reading from the week in worth-reading stories
Why corporations and petro-states are buying up farmland in the developing world.
There are for-profit health insurance execs on the board of every major journalism/media outlet in America.
Right-wing shock troops are doing corporate America's dirty work. The "me first, screw you" crowd aren't even trying to hide it anymore. What's the misinformed masses are screaming about is already the status quo. And just why is the debate being conducted on the corporate right's terms?
The latest income inequality numbers are truly startling.
Finally, is it meat eating that's awful for our planet, or just our cruel corporate agribusiness?
