I want to know, and this is somewhat rhetorical, how in the Hell do companies get to break laws, and at best only ever get fined? Better yet, how can they not be held accountable when they "promise" to make changes?

No no, I get it. Companies pay lobbyists and all. They buy their way out of trouble and pay lip service to a very complacent society. When will we wake up and do something about it?

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.
