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.

Maybe we could push public healthcare if we rephrase it as subsidizing companies, might as well try right?

So I recently read "dying of whiteness" after seeing someone go on about it here. There's apparently a lot of people that would rather personally die than let black people have health insurance

I’ve been saying for years that we need to frame it as an issue of international market competitiveness. GM and Ford, for example, could be more competitive on price with Honda and Toyota if they weren’t paying for health insurance for their current employees and pensioners.
