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.

Go look for stats on the referendum, if it wasn't for the 50+ years old people the UK would still be in the EU. It's not about "let’s take away the right of people to vote" it is about "how can we let people take vote for something that wont ever affect them either way?". I bet there was someone voting to leave that died of old age the next day, should that person have as much voting power as someone who's on their 30's and had to live an extra 50 years with the fallout of the decidion?
