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.

Thank you for the link from a billionaire-owned corporation. I would consider listening to it, but I don't use google products anymore than necessary. Also, youtube transcript doesn't seem to work on it.
Here's an alternative link to the same video: https://yewtu.be/watch?v=3cdqQ2BdgOA
And here's a separate link for the lyrics in case you hate good folk music
Phil Ochs was too good for this world.
Damn right he was. We just have to try our best to honor his memory by improving the world.
I like good folk music but I'm not allowed to wear headphones at work, so I appreciate the lyrics link! Looking forward to listening to the song later, seems like a good one.
Happy to help! Speaking of helpfulness, or rather unhelpfulness though, this is one of the most incongruous "see also" boxes I've ever seen 😂
