		<description><![CDATA[After years of being thoroughly pissed off with Australia&#8217;s resource industry unions &#8211; principally the Confederation of Forestry, Mining and Engineering Union &#8211; for their thuggish opposition to enlightened environmental measures, it&#8217;s a pleasure for once to agree. There&#8217;s a brawl going on at the moment in Australia as the next Federal election looms. The [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In early August I blogged The Ingenuity of the Markets &#8211; featuring a skit by the brilliant British satirists John Bird and John Fortune. This is in similar vein about the famous South Sea Bubble (circa 1720). It was not the Bubble to End All Bubbles as advertised.

		<description><![CDATA[British political satirists John Bird and John Fortune discussed the so-called credit crunch back in October 2007. This skit isn&#8217;t dated in the least. The biggest joke of all &#8211; failed gambler-bankers walking away with massive bonuses at the taxpayer&#8217;s expense &#8211; is still breaking news. Here&#8217;s an extract from the report in yesterday&#8217;s Daily [...]]]></description>

I especially like a runner-up in Heat 10 by freelancer Jon Kudelka. It&#8217;s a nice follow-up to the notorious Doonsebury moneychangers cartoon.

		<description><![CDATA[As the new millenium dawned, the &#8216;Anglosphere&#8217; had a seemingly well-established grip over the finances of the world. This financial dominance &#8211; vastly out of proportion to the populations of the English-speaking nations &#8211; was reflected in military muscle.

The derivatives market seemed steel-framed. All was well  - as long as you overlooked hundreds of millions of near-starving people and other pesky distractions such as global environmental decline.
