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.

I never said they don't deserve it, I said it's 275% above minimum wage for menial labor. Seems pretty great to me, but the person I was replying to still seems to be complaining about it.
Edit: regarding NBA players, they're the absolute best in the entire world at what they do, and they're part of an industry that makes money hand over fist. There's only a few hundred people on the planet that can play at that level. They've trained their entire lives to get to where they are.
