Awesome. But. It every job gets you healthcare benefits. And not every job pays enough to afford healthcare through ACA. So fuck off.
Edit: should read, “But not every job…”

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.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

I've worked hard labor, while either:
not being provided healcare (many chain stores keep you at 34-36 (I forgot the exact amount) hours a week so you are as close to full time as possible while still being technically part time, or they give you 10 hours a week, no bennies offered either way.)
being offered cheap healthcare that covers nothing with $9000 deductible,
and decent healthcare I couldn't afford, $80 a week, I was that broke (childcare+rent is like paying 2 rents), but still had the $5000 deductible and copays.
We work, and we still don't get healthcare.
Well, not federal anyway. My state does okay, but it is easy to be in the gap of not qualifying for state medical, yet still unable to afford employer insurance that may or may not cover necessary care.
I'm assuming that's a typo, and you don't really think every job has benefits.
iOS strikes again.
I wish he had black lung instead of just his employees.
Which Bible? The Pimp’s Bible?
Nah… even Pimp Jesus would back hand this motherfucker
And then Pimp Jesus was chillin with his homies, as it was written by the playas,
Verily I say unto thee, let the motherfucker who says we don’t all deserve free universal healthcare,
Verily may he receive a back handed bitch slap across the face, not one time, but one time again for His dead homies, for this is pleasing unto Him,
Piss on your shitty book.
Never read the Biblical, TF has it got to do with me?
Biblically, tho.
Tell that to your lazy ass donors
He does not deserve Babydog.
