New Book Exposes Extent of Big Box Store Subsidies

Johnston's recently released book, Free Lunch: How the Wealthiest Americans Enrich Themselves at Government Expense (and Stick You With the Bill), delves deeply into the extent to which big box corporations and their super-rich owners regularly receive enormous government subsidies. His book and NPR radio interview include the story of a small Pennsylvania town of 4,100 that gave $36 million in subsidies to a 250,000 square-foot Cabela's outdoor store.
