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.

Most billionaires inherited their money, solved
Of course LinkedIn slop misinterprets the data to basically say, "You, too, can become a billionaire even if you had mediocre grades!"

As a selfmade billionaire I can tell you it's all about your grind mind. I started my company in the kitchen and continued in the garage. When my mom initially said I can't have 10 million in starting capital I asked her again and she said ok. Grind mind. Then she told me not to take the lambo but guess what? I took it anyway. Grind mind.
Because GPA is a poor predictor of success at either university or business
Business, yes. University, less so.
