[QUOTE="rickyb, post: 2668712, member: 56035"] i thought this quote was interesting. i heard richard wolff comment on stay at home mothers. "the essence of labourism was that labour rights – more correctly, entitlements – should be provided to those (mostly men) who performed labour and to their spouse and children. As workers previously had little security, this was a progressive step. [B]But it was inherently sexist and hierarchical, privileging those doing regular paid labour over those doing other forms of work[/B], unpaid and outside the labour market, such as childcare and work in the community." from wkmac's recent article: Two-thirds of drug research is funded by taxpayers, while patents add $140 billion to the annual price of drugs in the United States." i cant remember what some of the other guys say about patents but i know max keiser is quite critical of the patent and copyright system.
