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.

Conflating "to make money" with "revenue" instead of profit is the iffy part for me... I apologize for not being clear about that.
At the risk of entering pedant territory, the idea of "making" the money is by doing something that would cause a person to pay more than before. If acquiring the "before" and the act of adding value incur costs, then to me, the "money made" is the revenue less those costs.
