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.

That message is spot on. It is one of the dumbest ideas capitalism brings you. Remember in the 50's they post articles in magazines how the future was going be all relaxation and robots doing all the work.
But between Baby Boomers and conservatives along with the nature of capitalism we get this hellscape instead.
We actually have most states going backwards on child labor laws anything other than raise wages and fix this horrible economy that favors only the super wealthy.
