		<title>rules of humanism</title>
		<description><![CDATA[	Bored? Skeptic? Tired? Here is a tonic sketch of what a healthy humanist human should aim for, IMO:
	Modify your country&#8217;s constitution so that it incorporates the following principles:
	
	the end of all the evils principle
	
	The total wealth of any human should be limited, at any moment, to a lifetime of average wages.
	This will not affect about [...]]]></description>

		<title>inclusive democracy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[	Just when I was thinking I kinda nailed it down with the concepts of humanist economy and limited wealth, transparent administration etc., I found a much more refined model of society called inclusive democracy. If you&#8217;re questioning the current state of affairs around you, and wish to do your best to fix the problems, this [...]]]></description>

		<title>clinical insanity and clinical stupidity</title>
		<description><![CDATA[	To define the clinical insanity, I need to define what is a lifetime of average wages: if the average wage in your country is, say, 1000 units, then a lifetime of average wages means about 100 years multiplied with 12 months multiplied with 1000 units, that is, about a million (1.000.000) units. If you&#8217;d have [...]]]></description>

		<title>George and God</title>
		<description><![CDATA[	To all my friends, here&#8217;s a relevant short presentation of George Carlin, written by John Nichols. Well, George Carlin has already become a part of me, among others.
	By the way, if we can&#8217;t seem to make up our mind if God exists or not, let&#8217;s settle some minor issues first, maybe that will give us [...]]]></description>

		<title>wars and cars</title>
		<description><![CDATA[	If you drive a car daily, you must know that the war in Iraq has been performed especially for you (surely there&#8217;s corporate profit involved, but that profit wouldn&#8217;t be possible without your ignorant help). This war is starting to cover some of those expenses. It is the long worked-for solution to correct back the [...]]]></description>

		<title>patriotism</title>
		<description><![CDATA[	I&#8217;ve waited for a long time for the itemized list of the suburbanite patriot, and now I found it.
I read a nice piece on Jay Leno&#8217;s patriotism, which reproduces that list.
	I&#8217;ll touch each one of those items below (read that list first, I won&#8217;t copy it here):
	
	A. If you have electricity and running water, you [...]]]></description>

		<title>voting in capitalism</title>
		<description><![CDATA[	I learned that 80% of the North-American voting system is based on closed software and private technology secrets, that is, the technology is not open to inspection by the public, the voters; not even by the public administration (for detailed information on these issues, check blackboxvoting.org).
	This is the ultimate proof of the misery of the [...]]]></description>

		<title>skepticism - optimism</title>
		<description><![CDATA[	Skepticism has nothing intellectual about it. Criticism does. Skepticism, if not supported by criticism, is just a cover for absence, it is an apparently academic dressing for ignorance, it&#8217;s also a cover for those who want, because of some shortsightedness, to see a certain idea or action fail.
	I&#8217;ve seen many people in the socialist era [...]]]></description>
