Tanja Porčnik in Članki, Gospodarstvo, Politični sistem Ti, ki prosto po Prešernu napadajo (neo)liberalizem in zagovarjajo socializem, nikoli ne gredo živet v Severno Korejo ali na Kubo. V srednjem veku so lov na čarovnice zaznamovale obtožbe, povezane z zlobnimi duhovi, hudičem, slabo letino in slabim vremenom. Ljudje so nasedli temu neutemeljenemu lovu… dr.
