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.

Two of the three points he made are total horseshit, but let's not throw out that last one:

If we could get the average American to ~~start working a year earlier, right out of high school, or a year later --not retire -- or~~ work better during their lifetime because they're healthy, it would generate about $3 trillion to the US economy.

Universal Health Care fucking now.

Their healthcare plan is this:

Got injured on the job? Can't work anymore? Well, that's okay. We have a nurse's station behind the woodshed out back. Just stand there and face the wall, and soon your injury won't be a problem.

"Too old to perform? Well, just come back here behind this woodshed and face the wall, and we can discuss our retirement plan." The HR rep says as they pull a revolver.

If we just start culling the weak then there will be more resources for us to own.
