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:
Our Goals
We’re constantly more productive and never see a reduction in work hours, only more work. You bring this up to one of these fucks or their simps and they say “sure, but when will the work get done?” as if that comment makes even the slightest amount of sense.
The very first thing we all need to do is stop working so hard. The rich don’t have any real skills and they have no power without the people they exploit.
Fucking ghoul. Thanks Oprah for making him famous.
Name one person uplifted by Oprah that's not a fucking ghoul.
Dr Oz, "Dr" Phil, John of God, each more evil than the last.
At least Dr Oz is legitimately a good heart surgeon. If that's all he ever did he'd have been a net positive on the world. As it is, he's caused far more harm to more people than he ever helped.
Oprah is part of the club that you are not in.
who gives a shit about your stupid debt. if you have debt ask your billionaire friends to spot you.
Sell yourself to indentured servitude at 18 and work until you're found dead by the janitor. Your corporate masters need a new Ferrari!
Like they'd use the money to pay back the debt lol.
It's so hard to understand why so many people don't want to have kids
No worries! The Republican solution is forced marriage and outlaw birth control.
You do as good as nothing effective against fascism.
You'll take this too and will keep eating shit until some of you grow a spine
This is going to be so great for the Rich People's Pedo Island Money.
Space X/X AI/Twitter (soon to include Tesla in a giant Xterfuck) will soar to all new market caps.
Garbage people produce garbage ideas.
Why not pay off the debt by reducing military spending by 90% for the next thirty years. We would still be in the top three countries for military spending.
This shitty idea is a thousand times better than anything Oz could come up with.
Also, you know, making the rich people pay even the same taxes WE pay, let alone the 50-90% marginal rates from decades ago, when the country was strong.
So when do you start doing actual work, Oz?
The thing is that he's right, but will these sleazy fucks do anything to actually make it happen? Well let's see what they're to implement...
So what they fuck do they mean by this? They clearly don't care about the debt or the well being of Americans since they're not willing to do anything about either. No, what they want are results without any of the work needed to achieve it. They're not looking for a more productive economy, they're looking for slaves.
The thing is that he’s right
He's not right. The national debt is way fuckin bigger than 3 trillion. He's also wrong in presuming that an infusion of productivity (tax revenue) can "solve" intentional over-spending. He's just a serial scammer spouting uninformed nonsense to stay relevant.
You mean a simple solution won't work for an exceptionally complex problem? 😱
If we WANT to Fix the Debt we need to ~~Tax like 5 REALLY Rich People!~~ Get RID of Retirement!
Or we could make it illegal to be a billionaire.
If we emptied the account of every rich asshole like this we would achieve the same thing AND lose a whole class of dickbags that think they should be in charge.
Sovereign wealth fund, universal healthcare, and free education!
The top 25 US billionaires could pay off US debt. Not even every billionaire. They total about 3 trillion net worth.
That's ignoring say the $60 billion or so Apple has in cash and who knows what other companies have
$3 trillion is only enough to cover the annual deficit (that's how much the debt grows by each year). Oz doesn't know what he's talking about.
Or we could stop lying about what the national debt is and tax the wealthy to destroy their absurd power.

Increased productivity means jack shit when the results of said productivity are being sucked up by people at the top.
Adding $3 trillion in GDP would not remove the debt anyway. Assholes like this one don't even understand how GDP is calculated nor what it means.
Two of the three points he made are total horseshit, but let's not throw out that last one:
If we could get the average American to ~~start working a year earlier, right out of high school, or a year later --not retire -- or~~ work better during their lifetime because they're healthy, it would generate about $3 trillion to the US economy.
Universal Health Care fucking now.
“Please stay in the corporate meat grinder so we can have enough money to fuck kids then bomb them”
as an aside - Read somewhere that this argument that the government can't afford all of these things like healthcare, infrastructure, etc. that would help most people is bullshit. Since the federal government prints it's own money there is nothing that it can't afford. We spent 3 - 8 trillion on the Afghanistan and Iraq wars alone. And when people argue that it will increase inflation - sure maybe, but if you tax wealthy people more it can cover part or all of the newly printed money.
Note: I'm a bit of an idiot about this stuff - so this article could be completely off base and I just wouldn't know.
