		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve had this loose sense for some years, now, that America (perhaps more than nearly any other society) is becoming a victim of its own success. In more ways than one in fact, probably, but in this case I refer to the long decades of enjoying the fruits of market capitalism. I&#8217;ve arrived at this [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Over at The Economist, my BFF notes the strange and wondrously-transformed political context in which, suddenly, &#8220;corn-ethanol subsidies are going to expire this year, and [...] no one is defending them.&#8221; Which is remarkable not only for itself, but for the timing, as just before reading the above link I was thinking of a post [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Another gloomy item about our financial system appeared today at Reuters. (Seriously, Reuters. It&#8217;s like &#8220;doubt about casino capitalism: it&#8217;s not just for hippies any more.&#8221;) The basic outlines are pretty much just confirmation of one&#8217;s general post-crisis pessimism, i.e. not enough has been fixed to really make the system more stable, and almost no [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Is it just me, or do working relationships seem to be getting slowly but steadily worse for the rest of you lately, too? Mostly in little ways yet, without any clear reason thus leaving one asking &#8220;why?&#8221; Why now? It seems like, if it isn&#8217;t just my imagination, it probably has something to do with [...]]]></description>

But these ideas have been haunting me all day, and I think it&#8217;s to the point where they simply demand some kind of post for the record, if only my own personal [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The issue of &#8220;packing up and moving&#8221; has been on my mind for some months, now. Actually, as I have come to realize, a number of up-sticks-ing-related issues have been on my mind, which may ultimately be too disparate to synthesize into one grand, unified-field-theory post. The loose theme of &#8220;I don&#8217;t like it here [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I would like to make one or two observations about poverty, prompted by some specific recent arguments, but general in their character and application. First, though, I suppose I should acknowledge that I myself am not poor. I&#8217;m certainly not wealthy, at least within American society, where I&#8217;m not even median-income. But I&#8217;m not really [...]]]></description>

In this instance, I multiply two of my worst most-endearing habits by posting a &#8220;deleted scene&#8221; in which I argue back at The Economist. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In my continuing series of useful, simple, completely obvious and absolutely-without-a-chance ideas, may I suggest: A free trade zone within the United States. At this point most readers will be either preparing objections to naive libertarian dogma or, more likely, concluding that I&#8217;m drunk again. I assure you, however: I&#8217;ve had nothing to drink today [...]]]></description>
