Bristol Anarchist Bookfair - news update

11-08-2008 16:01 | Globalisation | Social Struggles | Workers' Movements | World

5 weeks to go and its looking good!

With over a month to go until Bristol’s Anarchist Bookfair, we are already fully booked up with stalls & workshops.

As the current crisis of capital deepens and yet another war (Georgia/Russia) breaks out over land and energy resources, we need more than ever a serious alternative to the chaos of the present world order and the suffering it inflicts upon us. And we need to take the time to properly sit down & chat about it – as equals.

The History of stealing ideas - an anniversary

31-07-2008 17:24 | Analysis | Globalisation | History | World

On this day the 31st of July in 1790, one Samuel Hopkins (aged 47) made a piece of history when his improved method "in the making of Pot ash and Pearl ash by a new Apparatus and Process" became the first US patent with George Washington's signature. This was a way of protecting Samuel Hopkins improvement of an Ethiopian idea which had been used globally for several hundred years. A important milestone in the history of property as theft had been passed.

"As of February 2008, the PTO has granted over 7,950,000 patents"

We now live in a world where everything from gizmo to gimmick, nicknack to genetic code is filed away under a patent or patent-pending.

US increases federal Minimum Wage - "aspiring to more burger"

27-07-2008 13:33 | Globalisation | Workers' Movements | World

I've just read on wikinews how the US Federal minimum wage was increased last week from $5.85 to $6.55 an hour. If by chance you are one of those who haven't enjoyed a weakening dollar to spend your salary on fun weekend shopping sprees in New York City and thus learnt elementary currency trading, we're talking about an increase from £2.94 an hour to every 60 minutes.

This of course raises many questions. Not least of which might be : how much can you buy for $6.55 or £3.14 or would it be worth you spending a Sunday afternoon comparing wage levels between your locality and some other state in Europe?
