shoulderers
Those who carry
Those who shoulder something—literally carrying a load on the shoulder, or figuratively taking on a burden or responsibility.
The word appears rarely, usually in contexts emphasizing shared or distributed effort: the shoulderers of this heavy responsibility, shoulderers of the nation's debt.
