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.

You can afford a 2 bedroom apartment now though. You just need to sleep in your car because you live 300 miles from work.
Don't give them ideas. Speculators will sell you apartments that don't exist betting most people can't visit it anyway.
Sounds like living in an NFT. Non-Fungible Apartment?
Non fungible tenancy
Ohh, well played
Primary residence time shares, you say!?
That is one good thing that WFH did. I know several people who moved from LA to our middle of nowhere town where a nice 3br house is under $150k.
3 bed room houses were $86k in my town 5 years ago. No influx of people have come here, in fact less are moving here because the colleges are struggling, but housing proces have doubled.
Damn bro, that's actually pretty inexpensive. Do you have fiber out there, or heck cable? Because that's... That's some pretty cheap housing.
Yup, they're actually installing FTTC in my neighborhood now.
The only drawback is that it's rural Texas.
But, if enough liberals move here for affordable housing...
no
