Weekly Wall of Shame

Jobless claims rise 25,000 this past week. It seems like our economy is going two steps forward and three steps back.

New York fashion week and it's collection of cloths-hanger-thin models. No surprises there.

Oh, and here is a personal favorite. The Kardashian clan (which I incidentally know very little about for which I am happy) made over $65 million last year. Now this is all fine and well except they get paid to do things that no person should be paid to do. Personal appearances from $100,000 to $250,000 or $25,000 to tweet (yes, tweet) a brand name, the article says.  Not only is that the most tasteless way to make money, it is also a huge slap in the face for those who work their asses off full time just to make $30,000, roughly Kim Kardashian's tweeting fee. And with the above article stating that joblessness is pretty prevalent it makes me want to be a Robin Hood. Take the Kardashin's money and feed a few hundred starving Americans by providing a job or two. Sick and wrong.
