		<description><![CDATA[Today I read an article describing how the Australian government views being able to watch television as a basic service that is a right.  They are therefore proposing subsidising set top boxes for &#8220;the poor&#8221;, which encompasses people who cannot afford to convert over to digital television. Moreover, Senator Conroy, who has the somewhat Orwellian [...]]]></description>

Do we simply give up and go with the flow, or is there a smarter way? In my mind, government causes [...]]]></description>

A recession can potentially impact your economic freedom, which affects many other parts of your life. I know this from my own experience when I was made redundant from my job after 16 years back in 2003. Since that time, I have learned [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In this posting I would like to contrast insight and data. I&#8217;ve chosen this topic because freedom comes from having profound insight, not raw data (which does not help drive action) or banal or trite interpretations of that data (which are irrelevant). I&#8217;ll use the Philosopher&#8217;s Stone as a metaphor for insight, something that transforms [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The welfare state finds it convenient to designate certain groups as victims, in order to gain moral sanction from tax payers for transfer payments to tax earners. Similarly, those with Marxist views see society as a struggle between those who are exploited, and those who are exploiters. Currently the idea of a victim is widely [...]]]></description>

When a government decides to curtail freedom to &#8220;increase security&#8221; or &#8220;fight terrorism&#8221;, they generally don&#8217;t make massive changes at once. They incrementally reduce freedom, one statute at a time. Similarly, when you decide that you [...]]]></description>

Browne&#8217;s book is about what we can do to immediately gain freedom and overcome obstacles to our own growth.
