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.

It's funny how the criticism is basically "But this will create more jobs!"
I also can't help but notice how her personification of businesses (as things that can "really sweat") and empathy for them far exceeds the level at which she humanizes workers.
It's almost like "Mary Elizabeth Elkordy, founder of the remote-based company Elkordy Global Strategies," has a keen sense for which team she belongs to.
