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.

That's largely because we millennials already uncovered the unfairness for them. They don't have to figure it out; they just have to act against it.
I still give them credit for that, but it's not as though they walked in without having the previous generation's help getting started. We tried with Occupy Wall Street and failed. Maybe they'll try again and succeed someday.
I agree, I'm just happy they learned from us instead of wasting time reprogramming their brains. They have a leg up and I'm glad
It's hard rebuilding the ladders that were destroyed before us.
