Shocking research by Statistics Canada uncovers surprising economics discovery: people with lots of money lend it to people with less for more than it's worth: rich people get richer, and poor people get poorer!

"We were so focused on how fast people got sucked dry, we never stopped to realize why," said Mike Hunt, an assistant-upper-middle-deputy-manager at Statistics Canada.

Mike goes on to say: "We've been struggling to classify "monetary gains," for the lower class. We decided that getting two-for-one coupons, or winning a toonie from a scratcher counts. That way we can say for sure everyone is gaining!"

With the amount of admin bloat in most government and education sectors I honestly wouldn't even be surprised at this point if that was someones legit title.
