		<description><![CDATA[Many theorists believe that the growth of the State is an inevitable feature of governance, curbed only by the occasional revolution. Lord Acton&#8217;s famous maxim that power tends to corrupt would lend credence to this fatalistic view. I disagree. I think that the state can be beaten back, as it was in the 1980s in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s pretty much universally accepted that in order to bring down HUGE public sector borrowing (roughly 60% of GDP according to the OECD) the government needs to increase its bank balances, either by spending cuts or by raising taxes, or a combination thereof. I don&#8217;t pretend to understand macroeconomics and I&#8217;ll leave to to others [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The 21st century has already seen the biggest ever transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich. I refer, of course, to various government bailouts. In the US, what started as merely a transfer of wealth from the prudent to the imprudent has turned into a trillion-dollar package of political favours, not even intended [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With the recent European Reform Treaty, it is topical to consider the nature of, and the justification for the European Union. The central point to make here is that whatever justification for the EU that is given, it is either false or not worth it. Indeed, the EU is detrimental to the prosperity of many [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The nature of debt, and our attitude to it, has changed significantly since the nineteenth century. While the debtors’ prison used to spark fear into people’s minds, we are now, in Britain, living with a £1.3 trillion debt mountain. The cause of this change to the perception of debt can be traced to growing affluence [...]]]></description>
