Modern Problems Live for May 14th, 2011

This week we talk about:


1>CEOs from the five major oil companies -- which together booked $36 billion in profits in the first quarter of 2011 alone -- went to the Senate on Thursday to try to justify the $4 billion in tax giveaways they're receiving this year.


2> More than 75 Catholic college professors sent a publicly released letter to House Speaker John Boehner saying that the budget he supported will hurt the poor, elderly and vulnerable.


3> On Friday, the Michigan Messenger broke the news that the emergency financial manager had suspended the powers of Benton Harbor officials


So give the show a listen and let us know what you think. Leave us a comment. And until next time friends...
