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.

The system is working. It's designed to enrich the wealthy and extract that wealth from the poor.
The entire medical industrial complex is not going to give up their wealth willingly.
Plus most doctors are born into money already. They don't ever associate with ordinary people in the lower 80% of households.
A lot of folks who otherwise would have become doctors have pursued other careers because the money just isn’t there anymore.
