I have available to me, for being such a loyal subscriber, a free six-month gift subscription to The Economist website (not a print subscription), which I will give to the first person who provides a worthy motive for wanting one. Why don’t you give me a 200-word essay laying out your reasons for wanting one and how it would help you to improve the world? Post a comment below or email me. You do want to “take part in a severe contest between intelligence, which presses forward, and an unworthy, timid ignorance obstructing our progress,” don’t you?

If no other worthy individual shows up, I'll take it. My reasoning is that I would like to know more about the system that I am only a small insignificant cog in.

Hey, he didn't write 200 words. You gotta disqualify him.
