    Headline buries the lede:

        Maybe it was also a ploy to get more clicks. Everyone in a free will state has heard the exact statement. Though i wouldn’t be 100% due to them describing the dock strike as " expect your groceries going."

        It’s CNN, pretending to be wildly left wing (by GOP standards) while still having oligarchs backs.

    See I don’t drink there because I think their coffee is shit. The execs being complete assholes is just the foam of moral superiority on top. Then again I don’t have a yatch.

    So happy that the court sided with the side of obviousness here.

      Oligarchs usually don’t have to.

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.
