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.

Links don’t work for me (Canada).

Hey, sorry I'm not sure why. The YouTube video link comes directly from YouTube.

Here's the full YouTube URL to the video rather than the shareable one I had in the post: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p4QGOHahiVM

Invidious:

I shared an Invidious video link through the most stable Invidious instance I'm aware of. Perhaps you can try checking other Invidious instances: https://docs.invidious.io/instances/. There does not appear to be a local instance hosted in Canada.

Piped:

The alternative Piped does not appear to have this video yet as the video was just posted to YouTube today Nov 20th.

Here's the Piped link to the "Last Week Tonight" channel. Perhaps it'll show up several hours from now when it indexes YouTube (not sure how quickly Piped sees newly posted videos): https://piped.video/channel/UC3XTzVzaHQEd30rQbuvCtTQ
