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.

70,000 Americans die every year due to lack of access to health care.
How quickly do you think an issue would be addressed if it killed 70 billionaires a year?
Or even 7?
if it killed even 1 we'd have a bill passed next week. For the billionaires, ofc. But they'd react fast.
Never fall under the delusion that the government needs everything to move like molasses.
also they single issues like healthcare, medicaid, or funding education keeps politicians elected, if they solved all those than there are no reason to elect most of them.
