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.

Asking for specifics, unable to grasp obvious concepts or being a sealion?
Several reasons.
First of all, a lot of people argue in bad faith online and it's not worth my time and effort to feed trolls, sealions and shills.
Second, the question without further context implies that only people who know exactly what to replace it with are allowed to advocate the end of a horrendously wrong system.
Second and a halfth, why are you talking me with being more specific when the question was far too vague to even know if that's what they were asking for? Why demand specificity from me and not them?
Third, in this specific case I'm tired and thus have less energy left to spend on what might be another futile back and forth. If they're not serious about discussing it in good faith, I'd much rather spend my remaining energy on something fun like Baldurs Gate 3 or something..
I dunno about him, but I'm asking for specifics.
