		<description><![CDATA[Contrary to Barack Obama’s rhetoric about protecting consumers, his new financial reform law represents a dangerous big government power grab that willfully ignores the true roots of the recent financial crisis.
It is also the latest example of America’s “march to Marxism,” the not-so-gradual implementation of a command economic system in which the free market is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ponzi schemes rely on people falling for promises that are literally too good to be true – but the outcomes are never really in doubt for the perpetrators of these scams, are they?
First they are playing with money that does not belong to them – which means they cannot lose.  Also, when the scams [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In its latest attempt to mitigate public outrage over out-of-control government growth, the administration of President Barack Obama has instructed a handful of federal agencies to cut their budgets by five percent.
That’s right – after trillions of dollars in deficit spending, several multi-billion dollar bailouts and a costly socialized medicine proposal, Obama now believes he [...]]]></description>
