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.

Ok, MARTA really is kind of shit.
I rank MARTA pretty low compared to other cities. Cleveland's Rapid (RTA) ranks quite a bit higher than Atlanta's MARTA to me. However, my city has zero light rail, so I'm still a bit envious of MARTA. As shit as it is, what is more shit is nothing except city busses.
The MARTA line at the airport is heavy rail. You're right not to rank it that high because there are basically only two main heavy rail lines (with a couple of spurs) so there are a lot of places it doesn't go, but for the places it does go, it gets there just as fast as any other real subway.
