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.

Even when I tell people my state (US resident) only give ~$225 a week for unemployment they still insist people don’t work because they get free money and don’t need to.

We’re talking not been $1000 USD a month and these people are just so convinced it’s a life of luxury. When I was on it I could barely afford food.
