Zero Hedge Post Slurs 'Food Stamp' Recipients


The sociopaths at the Zero Hedge blog are at it again this time with a referral post to a local
Brooklyn New York crime story in which a "welfare recipient" allegedly slashed the face of a store clerk who refused to sell  malt liquor to the customer in exchange for 'food stamps'.

This post and commentary at the Zero Hedge blog is in my opinion an attempt to deride the welfare program  that provides nutrition assistance to dependent households, and it comes after another Zero Hedge post that took aim at the program for funding other forms of vice.

What could be the purpose of these posts at this ersatz finance and economics blog other than to point out certain extremely rare unflattering illegal uses for the balances provided by these benefit programs in an effort to denigrate the programs and our fellow citizens that have found themselves in the position to require some reliance on these programs for daily nutrition.

This Zero Hedge site is proven again to be written by a bunch of sociopath, sick, deranged, gold-loving, stupid, probably depressed, twisted, blind, psychopath morons; who by the way never get the economics right.... ever.

The Zero Hedge people are another disgraced bunch of morons to add to humanity's "shit list".

Matt,
it looks like the thuggy brownshirt side of the oligarch agenda. Paul Ryan (or Obama) is the smiley face "good cop" aspect. It could be that there is a lot of election year "street money" going around to get certain memes "out there" to prepare the population for what's coming down. I saw a recent comment here by one of our Austrian "friends" saying that in America a worker gets a "99 week paid vacation." And these people claim to be non-violent. It's horse shit.

David,

Agree 100%, that could be what is going on...

Sociopathic sado-capitalism at its most vile.

Yes, it's necessary to punish cheaters and free-riders in any social system. This ensures cooperation. Yet these very normal, otherwise healthy instincts are ruthlessly exploited by the 1%, malefactors of great wealth. ZH are mouth breathing tools of the parasitic feudal elite. If the Internet were around in 1860 they'd be sitting around whining about how lazy slaves are and how easy they have it.

Because it's funny to read things written by people who are always upset and clearly losing money because of their inability to separate emotion from economic analysis.

I like to read ZH, it's the modern financial yellow press.

If you filter most of their news and opinions/commentaries the site is actually decent.

Also if you want to see how a bunch of sad lunatics circlejerking you can read comments at posts.

You want to see a sad circle jerk of assholes, it would seem this is the place to come.'pun intended although chances of it being understood are slim'.

If you visit ZH more than once and still talk crap about it; one question: If it is so bad, why return and why link to the site so your readers can find it and find out you are lying and using ZH to try and build a following?

Nothing is all bad. ZH often comes up with interesting things that I post here and give credit for. It's the commentary and comments that are hilarious, worth reading some for the laughs.

I dont believe I said anywhere in the post that "no one should read that site anymore" or equivalent...

I'm just pointing out that at least some of the people who run that place exhibit psychopath characteristics and are stupid.
