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.

"No business which depends for existence on paying less than living wages to its workers has any right to continue in this country." -FDR

If you want to use a quote to make a point about equalitariansm maybe don't pick one from a guy who threw 200,000 Americans into concentration camps

(From memory, so there might be tiny mistakes in the language:)

"If we could climb the highest steeple
and then look down on all the people,
and shoot the ones not wholly good,
as we, like noble shooters, should,
Why then there'd be an only worry:
Who'd be left to bury
Us?"
    -Walt Kelly
