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.

Haven't they just increased max working hours?
The 69 hours a week bill got defeated. Apparently someone suggested 69 as a way of getting more babies, and the PM was like "hours of work a week? Deal!"
I hope you're not joking, that's hilarious
That the bill got defeated, and that the cap was 69 hours of work is true. Sadly, the rest was a joke.
I feared so
