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.

Always talking about minimums, but never maximums.

Set the maximum to a factor of the lowest. Want to pay yourself more? Great! Go ahead! You just have to make sure you pay all your employees enough too.

Same party of billionaires.

Good start, but if they think this is going to end this absolutely insane wealth disparity they have another thing coming.

No one policy is going to do that on its own. Criticizing one that that would help because it's not all the things, is fucking stupid

Criticizing it because it will never pass and it’s just a sham they are selling so you vote for their genocidal asses is not fucking stupid.

Repeatedly saying "this won't pass" Everytime a fix is proposed GIVES THEM PERMISSION TO NOT PASS IT.

You're telling politicians that you won't get mad at them for blocking it. You've already accepted defeat. Stop it.

Who the fuck accepted defeat? I just got another weapon two days ago, and trained someone new on its use yesterday. What the fuck are you doing?

It's not a good start, we all know this is election year pandering they will go no where

[–] ChristerMLB@piefed.social 6 points 3 months ago

Hot take: Progressive congresspeople should focus on ending union-busting, not on increasing minimum wage. The unions can handle minimum wage.

would be a welcomed change, but won't happen.

[–] K1nsey6@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

It must be an election year

[–] frongt@lemmy.zip 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Can we make bets on it not passing? I could use the extra money.

Now that's what I call hedging!
