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.

This will probably happen as the sunk cost fallacy of existing office space goes away. They have these big office spaces leased out and they're contractually stuck with that cost. Those leases will expire over the next few years, and a lot of them will decide they don't need them anymore. Until then, they're paying for something that isn't getting use, and there's mental pressure to force the issue.
This will coincide with a collapse of the office rental market. The places heavily invested in that market see it coming, are dreading it, and are driving headlines saying how much better office work is.
