Iz Božićne poslanice SPC...
Prvo, o Globalnom zagrevanju:
Klima se menja, topi se led na Severnom polu, nestaje poredak godišnjih doba; rastuća toplota priprema Zemljin šar da, ne daj Bože, sagori jednoga dana u ognju.
Onda, o Svetskoj Ekonomskoj Krizi:
Pored toga, danas je čovečanstvo veoma zabrinuto započetom surovom ekonomskom krizom. Najčešće se, međutim, previđa da ta kriza nije samo ekonomska nego je mnogo dublja i složenija. Zar nije čudo da se ona javlja prvenstveno kod najbogatijih: najuplašeniji su upravo oni koji su najimućniji. Njihova nezajažljiva pohlepa za novcem i uživanjima, preterana potrošnja prirodnih i materijalnih dobara, rađa neuravnoteženost ljudskih odnosa, odnosa prema najdubljoj tajni života i odnosa prema sveukupnoj tvorevini. Što znači: iza ekonomske krize se skriva duhovna i moralna kriza, i time kriza same čovečnosti.
Šta reći... Srećan Božić!

Odliv mozga
U srpskim medijima povremeno se pojavljuju oni koji smatraju da ih država nije adekvatno nagradila za njihove zasluge.
Već prva rečenica obećava, to je Željka Buturović o državnom finansiranju talenata u Politici. Evo i iz zaključka:
U realnosti, najveći svetski uvoznik talenta je država koja o njemu brine daleko manje od Srbije.

Dan Bordeaux daje par citata čuvenog H.L. Menckena. Moj omiljeni je vezan za promene:
What is a political campaign save a concerted effort to turn out a set of politicians who are admittedly bad and put in a set who are thought to be better? The former assumption, I believe, is always sound; the latter is just as certainly false. For if experience teaches us anything at all it teaches us this: that a good politician, under democracy, is quite as unthinkable as an honest burglar. His very existence, indeed, is a standing subversion of the public good in every rational sense. He is not one who serves the common weal; he is simply one who preys upon the commonwealth. It is to the interest of all the rest of us to hold down his powers to an irreducible minimum and to reduce his compensation to nothing; it is to his interest to augment his powers at all hazards, and to make his compensation all the traffic will bear.

Posle mnogo muke, slanja teksta u mnoge domaće novine i odbijanja istih i da nam odgovore (Vreme, Nin, Danas, Ekonomist magazin...) Slavišin i moj tekst "Kriza? Koja kriza?" objavljen je konačno na sajtu Peščanika.

Dok se svi slažemo da su Jezda i Dafina prevaranti jer su novcem od novih štediša plaćali stare uvek nađemo prostor u srcu da oprostimo PIO fondu koji posluje na isti način.
