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. They deserve to not suffer because TheY TaKe aLl tHe RiSk!
The risk that they constantly go to great lengths to mitigate.
And the idea of them taking on the risk is absurd. Corporations are legal constructs with the explicit intent of insulating owners from the downside risks of their companies. If they actually wanted to take on the risk, they'd just pay everyone from their checking account, if the corporation goes bankrupt, they go bankrupt.
