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.

I'm not entirely convinced. The bud light bullshit was MASSIVE and their stock only took a tiny hit, and that was a right wing thing which means the participation percentage was massive.
How was the bud light thing massive? People were buying Bud just to pour it out and then just buying other products in Inbev's portfolio. People don't understand that 85% of the beer in most liquor stores is a split between Coors and Inbev portfolios.
Well I haven't heard about the Kelloggs thing. Everyone heard about the bud light thing. For months.
I’ve found most people are more talk than action. I am almost to the point of having to create my own supply chain as my boycott list continues to grow over the years lol
Ethical consumption is basically impossible, you gotta draw what lines you can.
Though I do need to refresh my memory of what nestle owns, because fuck them in particular.
Yes, it is virtually impossible in the U.S. anyways. I’m mostly joking, but I do have a very long list. lol
Good reminder for me too, thanks! I haven’t memorized the full list yet https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Nestlé_brands
Fuck me they own Purina, which is fantastic pet food. And stouffer's, which is terrible but delicious and fast human food.
Welp, I'll forego the frozens but my cats are more important than my morals.
I agree on Stouffer’s, but I knew about that one as I live in the same region as the original US factory for them. However, I stick with whatever knock-off brand looks best these days. Yes, being intimately familiar with the finickiness of cats, that is the only option.
