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.

America produces way more than enough to allow everyone to live comfortably and enjoy life. But the fruits of all that extra productivity is being hoarded by a tiny portion of the population while workers are being increasingly stretched and strained to extract as much value from then as possible while paying them as least as possible.

The scarcity of wealth and the need to always work harder and longer hours to barely make it is an illusion maintained to exploit the workers.
