		<description><![CDATA[REGULATE, FOOS!!
It can&#8217;t be undone now, but choosing to tackle a resource-demanding issue like healthcare reform in the midst of such a severe economic downturn was just stupid. Helloo? Obama? Pelosi? Agggh, stupid. I&#8217;d love to see meaningful, substantive healthcare reform, and especially A PUBLIC OPTION, but it just wasn&#8217;t going to go well when [...]]]></description>

I believe we&#8217;ve entered a stage of &#8220;Argentinian Democracy&#8221; where the top 1% wealth owners have betrayed the trust of the people by overstepping the boundaries in a greed orgy that lead to big take-home pay for the executives of multinational companies and investors in hedge [...]]]></description>
