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.

No I fight the system from without. And talk about an unpaid, thankless job.
I opted out, the social contract is void, I don't accept living on the terms proposed, I'm not signing myself over to modern slavery while supporting a system devastating the planet just so some fat fucks can eat burgers all day. I would literally rather live on the street- and I do. Change has to come from people saying "no". Guess that's not for everyone, because by the time they get a clue, they're already knee high in the system and can't break free from it except at tremendous personal cost. Not everyone is willing to pay it, but I can't reconcile that with my base conscience and if nobody steps up then we're fucking doomed.
