      I am astounded that people think that you must work for free. This is illegal for good reason. The most valuable commodity that we have is our time. It is limited for every person. My time is as valuable to me as her time is to her.

      Serious question to up voters. How do you defend a privileged person demanding that time be given for free? Do you not value yourself?

    It’s not a “job” if you are working for no compensation. That’s slavery, my guy.

    But they definitely already know that.

    They try this bullshit for generations now.

    You couldn’t get gen x to work for free, you couldn’t get us millennials to work for free, what makes you think you’ll be able to get the next ones to work for free lol.

        Not sure how working for free would help with that though.

          Because when everyone except the upper classes is financially insecure you would be willing to do anything at a chance to not be, including giving away your labor for free for a chance of a paycheck maybe.

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.
