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.

I mean if they need to raise the prices to pay a fair wage and fewer people can fly, so be it. They're not running a charity and these aren't volunteers we're talking about. They're people working full time jobs to support themselves.

Airlines are directly subsidized by the taxpayer since at least 911... Remember covid?

They should not be earning any profit and they should be paying fair wages.

Their execs need to get the rope while we are on topic of their crimes.
