Forbes article needs critique, please: America’s Ever Expanding Welfare Empire
http://blogs.forbes.com/peterferrara/2011/04/22/americas-ever-expanding-welfare-empire/

I'm not going to post the content here, because it looks distorted and inaccurate. If someone has time, a critique would be welcome. Thanks in advance.

1. I don't have to read it to know it's a hit piece on the middle class and poor.
It's true. Welfare for the mega fascist corporations, like the billions in subsidies for big oil, needs to end and it needs to end now. The end to fat cat golden parachutes after fascist corporations fail also needs to end.

3. Forbes is eminently qualified to perpetuate the mythos of class warfare.
Faux is going to latch onto this like a pit bull with a soup bone.
