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.

This is kind of wild to me. In Australia we have a similar thing called Superannuation. Everyone is entitled to 11% from their employer, going up to 12% by the 1 July 2025. Unions bargain for agreements with extra contributions on top of that base percentage.
"Everyone is entitled to 11% from their employer"
That sounds an awful lot like a socialism and from what I've been told just doing a socialism once will bring a dictator to your door who will genocide your entire population.
