No working person in America should have to feel this way.

“It would make a hell of a difference if all airport workers had living wages then they could pay their bills on time, healthcare so they can go to the doctors and get the care they need, paid time off so they can tend to whatever needs.” -Andrew, Cargo Agent at EWR

I find it hard to believe he isn’t making over $20 an hour and has at least 80% of his healthcare paid in full. Not to mention paid days off, holiday pay, sick pay, and bonuses. This ain’t the full story so stop being a scaremonger.

No person should have had to be locked out of a building and watch their spouse or loved one die alone through a window thanks to asinine Covid restrictions either, but we don’t live in that world…

U.S. is worst among developed nations for worker benefits

Americans get less generous employee benefits than residents of peer countries, as judged by factors like healthcare and vacation days, according to Zenefits.

This is insane and G-d forbid you lose your job - Healthcare should be universal and continuous.

Luggage handlers are unskilled labor, but still make an average income of a $31K. Want more pay? Get some additional skills and earn it.

My last four jobs in mental health care were underpaid. The worst thing was the lack of decent medical benefits. My Medicaid clients had much better health insurance availability than I had. This is the legacy of Obamacare: horrible health care for working poor and middle class
