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.

Awww we have abundance? The world is always getting better? Science is so cool? We can do so much more?

Who's we? I had to stitch an injury up with a sewing kit last week. I didn't get antibiotics. Half my friends don't get to sleep in houses. I'm the only person I know who regularly eats real food without fear of shitting myself because my entire apartment is shelves full of dirt and grow lights.
