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.

Par for the course. Take all you can take and give nothing in return is their motto
I've seen this too, the ones who bitch the most will trash the union and the company, but seldom if ever actually show up at union meetings. It's inherited from a culture of apathy, and this "give nothing in return" is a big issue.
Usually the democrats at least show up to the meetings, conservatives bitch and do nothing.
