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.

Working remotely from another continent crowd checking in.
What’s the logistics of this? I work remote 3 days as a software dev and I’m hoping to eventually get full WFH.
How does one just move to another country to work from there. Do you need a lot of cash on hand to make the move or can you just be a nomad kind and do it.
I'm not going to touch immigration, work permits etc, because it varies greatly - I'm assuming you figure it out. For skilled workers with work experience there usually is a fairly painless way to get all you need.

Moving is the simplest part:

Vast majority of the info you need will often be available on the embassy website of your destination country.

Thanks so much for posting such a detailed reply. I appreciate it and will be looking into this in the near future.
Ayyyy I would be there with you if I could bring all my kids with me. I dislike 20-30 flight time to see my kids. And it's also wasteful.
Take them with you, especially if the move is a quality of life upgrade.
I can't get any of them to move out of Nevada for a better state. There's no way that would go with me to another country.
Heh, I assumed you were talking about young children and your response suggests adults. In that case I'd say it's even easier - they already live their own lives and you have more flexibility to live yours the way you like and where you like. Travel is always a pain, but the bigger deal the trip is the more meaningful the visit.
