		<description><![CDATA[The perfectionism-neutrality debate Last week I wrote about government&#8217;s use of taxes, tax credits, fees and regulations, and legal punishment to incentivize and disincentivize personal behavior, such as the homebuyers tax credit, taxes on alcohol, parking meter fees and speeding tickets.  As I noted, one of the key public philosophical questions that arises is &#8220;to [...]

		<description><![CDATA[Bernard-Henri Lévy has an interesting post bemoaning the debate over &#8220;national identity&#8221; in France. &#8230;the word &#8220;identity&#8221; applies to subjects, not to communities; it can be used in the plural, never in the singular.
