		<description><![CDATA[One of the tenants of capitalism is that the free market will regulate prices for a commodity. I personally don&#8217;t think that health should be a commodity, but some do, maybe even yourself. If consumers get together in the &#8220;free market&#8221; and decide to start a health insurance cooperative and influence the price of health [...]]]></description>

But if it is too small, it can&#8217;t protect its citizens from abuses of power. President Theodore Roosevelt said, &#8220;The limitation of governmental power means the enslavement of the people by the great corporations.&#8221; This is happening now. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by Ken Nicholson I think its time to take a closer look at why Mexicans are coming here. I doubt they come because they like it here, but rather because they couldn&#8217;t otherwise support their families in Mexico. The reason for that being that NAFTA, IMF, and international agra-business has eliminated traditional farming practices and [...]]]></description>
