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.

Yes I agree it is immoral and detestable and was also the softest option for the day. No other contemporary culture had any protection for indentured servants, yet the Bible demands it at the threat of community judgment against the harsh and cruel masters. And the children of indentured servants were free citizens.
Compared to today it was still brutal and inumane, but was the MOST humane option for literally 3000 years. It's just not progressive compared to today's values.
And today's values won't seem very progressive to progressive humans in 3000 years either, something you are probably incapable of understanding.
That only applied to Jewish slaves.
