Hotel workers ought to be paid well and treated with respect. When the hotel makes them rush and cut corners, they can't clean the rooms as well. There's a health issue.

They all want slaves and not one of these corporations gives a fig about this country.

None of them.

They want us all hungry and in rags.

Fuck Hyatt and kudos on the boycott.
