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 am shocked anyone thinks the 1% will let a livable basic income alone.

Minimum wage is the OG basic income. "Everyone will have to pay a living wage now!" They said, after negotiating with capitalists.

Well how is that $7.25 treating you now wage slaves?

The 1% will corroded any government, undo any reforms... all using the surplus labor value stolen from the working class.

This is inevitable, any romanticized version of capitalism is merely on step on a stair case leading down to end stage capitalism.

See yall at the last stop. Peace.
