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.

Summation of conversations I've had with a doctor about the healthcare system.
Doctor: "The system needs fixing."
Me: "Agreed, we need to socialize the healthcare system."
Doctor:"Not like that, I still wanna be rich!"
How many times have you had that conversation?
Methinks zero.
I live in Texas, where even the doctors are right wing nutjobs. Also, I'm paraphrasing for comedic effect.
