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.

The trick only works if they can convince you that you are trapped with no alternative.
For most people, the alternative is unemployment with the bonus of not eating.
Maybe. That's certainly the fear they're hoping you give into, and it's the same rationale they'd use to disparage a union forming.
Indeed... Mid level paper pushers are in demand right now tho esp competent ones.
They will exist and get another job.
