Work Reform

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

But if you consider the counter-argument, maybe arrogant billionaires need to be reminded again that the deal by which they wouldn't be dragged out of their homes and beaten senseless in front of their families was that they'd pay a living wage and deal with unions and submit to antitrust regulations
We never should have accepted such a monstrous Faustian deal in the first place.
