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.

Oh trust me the media is already hard on the anti union propaganda machine
It's amazing what you can do when a single plant strike costs in the neighborhood of $50 million/day. I'm a salaried worker at one of the Big 3, and even though we're not union, we got some very nice bonuses out of this too. The 401k match, improved health insurance benefits, and raises all around.
I'll be the first to complain about some of the more negative aspects of the UAW, but like anything else there are going to be people who abuse it, but it's worth it for the huge benefits to everyone else in the industry.
