		<description><![CDATA[From Business Week

Commentary by Caroline Baum

March 10 (Bloomberg) &#8212; The public is mad as hell at Washington: at the corruption, the underhanded deals, the earmarks, the sense of entitlement that comes with lifetime employment. If we don’t want to take it anymore, we can do something about it.
