“The paramount problem... is how to make this new form of property ownership a workable agent toward repeopleizing the proprietorship of the country's industries. Open to the wage-earner of the country the road to proprietorship... not as a gratuity, but as their proper allotment out of the combined forces that have made the enterprise successful.” MadeCountryProblemFormPoliticsForceEconomySuccessfulIndustryPropertyAgentsLiberalismEnterpriseOwnershipParamountAllotmentsProperty OwnershipGratuity Author:Peter S.

“To the labor of man alone Smith ascribes the power of producing values. This is an error. A more exact analysis demonstrates... that all the values are derived from the operation of labor, or rather from the industry of man, combined with the operation of those agents which nature and capital furnish him.” MenValuesPoliticsEconomyIndustryLaborErrorsAgentsOperationsAnalysisLiberalism Author:Jean-Baptiste Say
“I wanted an agent who would actually sell stuff. After two British agents failed comprehensively, I was reading Locus (the SF field's trade journal) and noticed a press release about an experienced editor leaving her job to join an agent in setting up a new agency. And I went "aha!" - because what you need is an agent who knows the industry but who doesn't have a huge list of famous clients whose needs will inevitably be put ahead of you. So I emailed her, and ... well, 11 years later I am the client listed at the top of her masthead!” KnowsNeedsYearsWellsTwoWantedJobsReadingStuffFieldsHugeIndustryTradeSellsPressesLeavingBritishListsSettingSettingsReleaseAgentsAgencyEditorsClientsJournalNew AgePress Release Author:Charles Stross

“I work at a record label where I have archives. These things [memorabilia] occurred and are important to somebody, and they're important to me. I find the record industry largely repellent. This music, the Teen Idles, all of that stuff, is important to me. I don't have lawyers, an agent or a manager. However I find the music industry largely repellent. I just make records because that's what I love to do. So I think that era, those pieces of media, I keep in my collection.” ThinkingImportantStuffRecordsPiecesMediaIndustryLawyerAgentsManagersLabelsErasCollectionsMusic IndustryArchivesRecord Labels Author:Ian MacKaye
