Make Your Damn Bed 1507 || "livable wage" is a violent phrase
People are more productive than ever before and YET our wages are not reflecting the growth in labor. Our wages have been stolen by the wealth hoarders and redistributed to shareholders at the expense of our dignity. We need to ensure their propaganda about laziness doesn't continue to influence the people around us.
The robber barons are worse than ever, but at least we're FINALLY talking about their crimes.
