PODCAST: Food stamp transparency

Stock market corrections, food stamps, and Missouri infrastructure.

Last week was a pretty crummy stretch for stocks, and today doesn’t look much better. So how is the stock market really doing? Plus, does the public have the right to know how much a retailer takes in through the federal food stamp program, or is it a trade secret?

We tell you why your state might be next.
