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.

Paying more can't magically make more people available to work and there are real labor limits right now. It just means that if you want people, you have to make sure you're using them as effectively as possible and pay them above market rates.
But for every guy you get, the other guy loses a spot and has to compete harder.
This is a good thing.
Or we could... Reduce overproduction a little bit? 🤷
You first
I'm not in a political decision making position.
Well yeah, that would be catastrophic and it would also be either murder or hilariously repressive government control of reproduction
