    Why is there a “Top Pay Rate” for workers and no “Top Pay Rate” for management/executives?

      Because the executives created the rules to benefit themselves.

            Yes. But by proxy through legalized bribes, so it’s totally okay.

              Not always by proxy. Quite often they get elected. And, if not elected, appointed to powerful government jobs in the executive branch.

      That’s a really good fucking point I never thought about… That’s some serious bullshit.

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.
