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.

Just checked 5 guys prices: Cheeseburger fries and drink will cost AT LEAST 27 dollars.
Imaging paying over 50 dollars for two people for less than 9 dollars worth of raw ingredients, and only pennies of it are going to the folks doing the very hard work behind the counter.
I feel ill.
But but but... all the peanuts you can eat while you wait for us to cook your food!
It was a decent place over a decade ago when they hooked you up with tons of fries and prices were not as crazy. But yeah, I haven't been there in years.
They still give you tons of fries, at least they do at my local place. Unfortunately, for me it meant so much grease that my bag ripped at the bottom as I was walking into my house.
