		<description><![CDATA[These premium rated SMS numbers that you can send a message to and donate a certain amount to a charity is bullshit. I initially thought it&#8217;s a wonderful idea to get people to donate to charities. I mean, what&#8217;s easier than sending an SMS? People just don&#8217;t want to give money any more or go [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I hope that people have learned from the last year or so that banks are definitely Evil.  Not only do they want to suck us dry whenever they can, but they were almost single handedly responsible for the world wide recession we find ourselves in.  The consumers shouldn&#8217;t have asked for credit when they weren&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It was reaffirmed again this week to me that some people shouldn&#8217;t even be allowed to look at dogs, let alone have them. It saddens me whenever I see animals being mistreated or neglected. They didn&#8217;t ask to come become part of your world, you decided that for them. How often don&#8217;t I see or [...]]]></description>

We have these preconceived ideas about how terrible banks are, that by the time we go into a bank, we have so much negative thoughts about how long we&#8217;re going to be there, how terrible service we&#8217;re going [...]]]></description>
