    It is working.

    Joe Biden took [https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2022/jan/28/viral-image/biden-did-not-receive-millions-drug-industry-membe/](almost nine million) in Big Pharma money. Every member of Congress has probably taken a large sum of money from them too, and they can loan their campaigns money at 20% interest and legally pocket those lobbyist contributions.

    That is why diabetics in this country are stuck paying a mortgage payment to inhabit their own bodies. It’s by design.

      Conservatism is a plague of corporatism, deception and death. Conservatives (including neo-liberals like Biden) are the reason we don’t have a legitimate healthcare system. Killing us benefits them.

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.
