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.

Why do liberals so often want people to suffer?
How about meeting people’s needs not giving them the bare minimum levels of things if they perform “minimum wage”/lowest price point capitalists can get away with giving jobs?
Why can’t you just argue for great healthcare for everyone? Why can’t people just be entitled to a house, food, needs met, etc?
This radical centrism is why things never improve.
Yeah its the liberals that got us into this. Very observant.
I'd love a maximum wage, amirite? LOL
Although, we should get rid of the social security cap on high earners. It'd solve a lot of this insolvency talks, promptly.
Because the smaller goal is more achievable and is a step towards the bigger goal.
Saying "let's not even try to go for the more achievable goal because it's not quite enough" is counter-productive.
In a world with infinite resources where these things require no labor to produce, you would be right. Sadly we don't live in that world.
