"Autre théorie; même langage froid qui rabaisse tout au niveau de la productivité. Pour les marxistes, l'homme n'est qu'un pion que l'on déplace sur l'échiquier de la Révolution. Pour les tenants du néolibéralisme, il n'est qu'une boule que l'on fait glisser au bas d'un abaque. Marx is alive and well and playing at the New York Stock Exchange."

"[WEEE] would put the burden of cleaning up the electronic-waste stream, and cleaning up electronic products themselves, squarely on manufacturers. They would be obliged to take back all their electronic and electric products (from mainframes and note pads, to toasters, toys and stoves) when those products are kaput, and to provide and pay for home collection. Distributors would have to offer to take back, free of charge, a worn-out item for every new item they sell."
