1. Ah, the old "dead peasants insurance" that pays off the masters.
Wal-Mart got some bad press from this kind of thing a few years ago.

It's just another way for corporations to make money. Didn't know that governments were doing it, too.

4. How horrible to have to look at Phil Gramm again.
He may be the ugliest man in politics.
