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.

Trump and promises go together like oil and water. They only mix when a huge stir is caused.

They must have worked for a Trump event in the past.

Maybe because they fucking understand who is actually on their side?

Both sides represent capital, but at least the democrats are less openly hostile to labor.

Agreed.

Remember just how many senators voted to illegally end the railroad strike.

I very much doubt Harris is on the side of waitresses. But that doesn't matter, because the reasons I have to vote for her aren't based on narrow economic self-interest.

Yes, I’m sure the waitresses like the idea of forced pregnancy and denial of any and all economic and family benefits that a decent society would otherwise provide.

Probably because they know Trump is full of shit.

I don't know how Harris feels about the lives of ordinary people, but I DEFINITELY know how Trump feels about them.
