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.

Americans need to organize themselves out of 2 party system. It's the only way and funnily enough - it would be a much more of an american system because US is all about competition, right?
Maybe get rid of parties altogether? They already have one representative per state, why not go with that and elect one of them a president?
If a group of people start collaborating together to elect people aligned with their socio-economic interests, what is your plan to stop them?
The framers of the Constitution had objections to parties and left them out. Completely refused to even acknowledge them. Within five years, a party duopoly formed. Even nominally one party states have hidden internal factions. It is better to acknowledge human nature and compensate than to work against it only to cause harm in failure.
What is the point of a multi-party system when we believe all the other parties are ontologically evil?
It's like a wheel - the more sides there is the smoother it rolls.
Why the hell do you want government to roll? Damn thing is going to roll right over you.
