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.

The real enemy isn't the other guy higher up the hierarchy who earns double or triple your salary for his work. It's the guy who doesn't need to work at all because he owns the company you both work for. It used to be one fat fuck in a suit and you knew his face, but now these fuckers are in the stock market and each one owns just a share of each company. And they have learned to not show their faces in public.

It's mostly owned by boomers and their pensions and 401ks now. As a class they outweigh billionaires 8 to 1 in terms of wealth though of course billionaires are way more active in their enfuckening of the companies they lead.
