A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

Yeah. We all want something for nothing. Fortunately, there are still enough adults in the U.S. who recognize that just doesn't work in the real world.
The real world includes many other economies with a 32 hour work week and people there enjoy a higher standard of living on average than we do in the US, with higher performing metrics in education, life expectancy, healthcare, and mental wellness.
It's the rich investors who ruin business and prosperity that want something for nothing. Billionaires that got rich selling bullshit over our public use infrastructure (roads, law enforcement, firefighters, etc) but act like they somehow deserve an ROI earned by cutting our legs off.
Real asshole take you got there.
Don't feed the trolls, just downvote and move on. Trolls love it when they stir shit and get angry reaponses
How do you downvote them?

Okay, how do I do that?
Lick that boot bud
Suck off your CEO while you're at it!
Shut the fuck up. We can make the world a better place if we want to. We are just going to have to drag you and the rest of the simps for the rich kicking and screaming. And you will benefit from our efforts. And just because you will freeload off of us improving the world doesn't stop me from wanting to do it.
We have enough food and goods to go around if we would just start voting for people who actually believe we can do it. We were so close with Bernie...
