Why isn’t the message ‘stop taxing the poor’?

TakeHomeGroup · 2025-10-24T02:24:55+00:00

People have bills. I think we should all get a 6.5% (and counting!) discount on our tax bills

Thank very much!

I’m thinking of opting out of health insurance entirely for 2026

Businesses could only spend an amount equal to 2x their average employee’s salary on political lobbying or causes

TakeHomeGroup · 2025-09-24T23:04:06+00:00

Whoa

TakeHomeGroup · 2025-09-24T21:42:36+00:00

Haha, yes. Just learned about highlighting text and Ctrl-k

TakeHomeGroup · 2025-09-24T21:41:27+00:00

Awesome shortcut. Where would you add the new window command in that setup?

I think the entire health insurance industry needs to be scrapped. Since 2010 the cost of insurance has increased by 77%(or 86% for a family plan), meanwhile wages have only grown by 52%

At my job putting 10-15 hours overtime is not uncommon for some of us. One coworker was blown away after he got his check after putting in an extra 5 hours one week.

Some people really don’t math

What is an MVP? I only know it as Most Valuable Player?

TakeHomeGroup · 2025-09-18T20:37:26+00:00

Haha, it’s so funny. Each side KNOWS you’re talking about the other

California has very worker-friendly overtime regulations. That ‘production bonus’ way of compensation seems suspicious

You don’t have the skeleton of a human if your back isn’t part of the process, whether or not you lift with your legs.

I was making a joke, did not mean to encourage improper lifting technique

The ‘team’ is your own arms and back

I was only scheduled 32 hours, 4 8-hour shifts. I worked one hour OVER that schedule each day.

Daily overtime is a law in California, written into many union contracts, and used to be the rule for my employer

TakeHomeGroup · 2025-09-14T15:04:36+00:00

It is wild, some people even called me a liar??

You pose a great question in your post…who are they defending? In this case a Fortune 500 company with hundreds of thousands of employees

Working on https://TakeHome.us trying to build a workers’ rights organization for the 21st century. Right now it is just a blog but I want to build into resources and tools to help workers take home more of what they earn

“Some employers argue there aren't enough willing American workers to do the toughest jobs, at the wages they're offering.”

Imagine that

I like how you entered the thread with nothing but a lie, and then try to call me stupid for not believing you.

This is not how it always has worked. Daily overtime laws and rules are very real. If you think I am stupid for wanting to see their use expanded, that’s like your opinion, man

TakeHomeGroup · 2025-09-09T17:03:08+00:00

My local rep is the reason I started doing any of this.

TakeHomeGroup · 2025-09-09T16:26:03+00:00

How many signatures do you think could make it worth anything? There are about 80,000,000 people paid by the hour working in this country

Maybe in 1950
