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 wonder what happened in the last decade that gave western countries a much bigger and less discerning workforce to select from that enables them to dump wages ... ?
The joys of mass migration.
Immigration is a very good thing for economies prepared to handle it.
if said economies gatekeep and hand select the ppl they let in, yes, but the exact opposite of that is happening. and no one is interested to tackle the problems that built up the need for immigration in the first place, creating a pretty bad circle.
