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.

Or my favorite. EMTs only get $15/hr. You think fast food workers should make as much as them?
No you asshole. EMTs should make more than that. Why aren't you fighting for everyone to make more?
larping daddy's koolaid too hard... we know why.
bigger question how owner PR his good where they got broke ass pedons telling other broke ass plebs these talking points?
I think you might have borked part of your sentence.
Low EMT pay boils my blood. I have a friend who is a career EMT and the fact that he doesn't get paid enough for what is a back-breaking and emotionally-tolling job is enraging. He works harder than any CEO, that's for sure.
