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.

But your logic was wrong?

You claim my wife and kid would be better off without me in the picture. That would mean I can just quit my job tomorrow and tell her to deal with it and it would improve her and the child's life.

How the fuck would that happen?

i'm angry because you're just so bad at logic.

I said they'd be better off if you left and stopped eating up resources. You're rich, they're already set. You're just increasing a number now because it makes you feel good, like you have some worth after all. She's be better off with someone capable of love and not just getting angry and calling it logic.

Why would I waste my time with one person for 6 years if I didn't love her?

have you stayed with someone for more than 5 years without loving that person?

The pregnancy is recent, so it's not like I stayed with her because of a child.

See, you're trying to make emotional arguments now, not logical. You don't actually care about logic like you claim, you're just another baby throwing a tantrum with the rest of us.

Have fun!
