Take a good look at the picture above. According to macon.com, this woman in the photo was unable to be one of the "lucky" people to receive a federal assistance for her heating bill, which she is holding in her hands. The article described the assistance, how it's been cut this year, and a few words with her (she's not happy) and one other fellow who was able to receive some help.
What the folks at macon.com didn't mention was that large 55-or-so-inch-TV in the background. And if you look carefully, it appears that a game console is hooked up to it.
Thanks to theblogprof for bringing this example of injustice to my attention.
