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 is suggesting making your own lunch a "bad" thing though? I've been doing it for years to save money and eat better. Food is absolutely on "us" I would be eating whether I'm home or at work, but then again I'm a US born Stockholm syndrome slavelord that's just used to the shit system we have here. Do other countries require their companies to pay for lunches?
What's nice is that when you work from home, you have your whole kitchen at your disposal to make your lunch. As opposed to needing to plan ahead while wasting part of your day on a commute.
Suggesting it at an appropriate time or place is fine, such as a frugality community.
Suggesting it in response to the fact that working in an office is significantly more expensive compared to working from home is not appropriate.
