		<description><![CDATA[This is starting to get extremely ridiculous. What has happened to the freedom of speech? China is starting to intrude greatly into the personal affairs and activities of others. And in this way, they are overasserting their authority.

Reading articles like this makes me very upset. Especially when I think of others who are residing in an overcontrolled country like China. There is no more freedom of self expression, and the freedom to make their own decisions.

In fact, forced closure of blogs isn&#039;t going to help anyone. In fact, it would give cause the people to have an even greater hatred against the government, and people are STILL going to criticise the government via speech anyway.

My conclusion is that the government is screwed.]]></description>
