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.

MODERATORS
Me: Hi there, I'd like to apply for a loan for a new restaurant.
Bank: Okay, so you have a business plan?
Me: Yes, here it is.
Bank: Hmm... it says here under employee compensation, "slaves LOL" - what does that mean?
Me: Oh, haha, I'm gonna pay them pretty much nothing.
Bank: ...get out of my bank.
Why do we accept shitty business plans that would otherwise get laughed at?
if you could show the bank you could get away with it they would be more than happy to fund you
