		<description><![CDATA[12/9/2010 &#8211; John Stossel - Prosperity is impossible without property rights. Of the 6 billion people on Earth, 2 billion try to survive on a few dollars a day. They don&#8217;t build businesses, or if they do, they don&#8217;t expand them. Unlike people in the United States, Europe, and Asian countries like Japan, South Korea, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[12/5/2010 &#8211; Andie Brownlow - Liberals and conservatives both believe that as Americans, we should be moral people. The major difference is where their morality intersects with their politics. Most conservatives believe that our morality should come from religion, separate from government. Most progressives incorporate moral guidance as a function of government. The humanistic tendencies [...]]]></description>

And the mounting crisis of government. It&#8217;s already begun, in fact, over at U.S. News and World Report, where Mortimer B.

They require more and more, yet they blame these subjects for any setbacks caused by said subjects&#8217; imperfections [...]]]></description>

Life isn&#8217;t carefree, simple, eternal, digitally organized, or purple-green plaid. Yet we live. Most people can accept life&#8217;s troubles and have come to love life, as it is, including [...]]]></description>

Had Blow made a liberty chart rather than an affluence chart, he might have noted that the freest country in the world &#8212; for 234 years &#8212; the [...]]]></description>

Professor Alan Dershowitz led off with an article strongly objecting that America wasn&#8217;t a Christian nation; Boston Globe columnist Jeff Jacoby replied that it certainly was.

We’ve talked about the gay-rights movement, which insidiously insists that religious believers and organizations bow before the altar of sexual freedom. We’ve talked about the so-called health care reform bill, which does not protect the [...]]]></description>
