Restoring the American Dream
The working labor market faces many deep-rooted
problems. There is a persistence of a large low-wage
sector, with under-employed and unemployed workers,
along with a shrinking of middle class and a worsening
inequality in earnings.
Employee ownership and self-management provide a
plausible route toward achieving greater wage equity,
reforming the quality of work, and fostering
accumulation of financial independence.
Eliminating the inequality in earnings for under
employed and unemployed will open a vast new
horizon of possibilities for individual fulfillment.

| Founder William C. Riney This I believe I believe, there has been a terrific breakdown in community places, where people can come together and call it their own. “What excites me (William Riney) is trying to change the culture of what people expect from work, and what they consider the nature of work. Do I have a right to a living wage and a job where I have something to say about decisions? There are proven, concrete ways for rebuilding a community through different aspects of work. People had originally thought about community in terms of neighborhood, but together we can build a different kind of vision – the community that is based in work and neighborhood. Jobs Now Worker Owned Co-Operative activists will resemble what aggressive labor unions did for low-wage workers and unemployed three generations ago. Politicians accused me of trying to reinvent the wheel, that jobs are gone and not coming back, but I take pride in proving them wrong.” Because if we don’t do this together who will and when will they do it? |
