      Most of his worth is stocks, that are highly overvalued by 100x. If he tried to liquidate for cash he would be with a fraction of his net

            and yet he still has the reach and power he does, with ephemeral shit like stocks. as if they’re … just like dollars. it doesn’t matter what kind of asset it is, these billionaires need to go.

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.
