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 travelers won't want to learn a new rail system. They'll probably just get a cab at the stand.

I'm from Australia; Everyone I know will default to public transport when travelling. My partner and I normally book our accommodation with public transport in mind.

Using a different public transport system is really not that big a deal...

I've been ripped off by enough cab drivers across the United States that I only use taxi cabs as a very last resort.

MARTA doesn't have enough rail lines to justify that hesitancy.
