Robinhood, as its namesake implies, was seen as a tool that allowed the everyday individual to be able to invest in the stock market and have access to investing. However, after a massive controversy involving Gamestop, it soon became clear that the ‘everyday consumer’ was not Robinhood’s customer—but the product itself.

Welcome to the Corporate Casket, a semiweekly series where bad businesses go to die. We will discuss any and everything from bad charities, terrible CEOs, and businesses that have a lot to hide.

Summary: When Marjorie Taylor Greene was first introduced to the United States people as a new political candidate, there was certainly some cause for concern. The young “businesswoman” had been active in the world of conspiracy theories and people spoke out against her election. As she began her run as a United States Congressperson, that concern seems to grow by the day as she continues to spew atrocious, insulting, and misinformed rhetoric to the public.
