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.

And the really big corporations own their buildings. You think the company locked into leases are mad? The companies who own the building are pissed! Some have a multi million dollar building that's losing value faster than the speed of light.
Good. Turn that shit into housing.
No shit. But this is America... You already know that proposition is dead on arrival.
Nihilism is cool and all, but smart thoughtful people are working really hard on this and it’s not easy - unless you create windowless tenements with no plumbing.
First part of finding a solution is admitting to the problem. For the change we need, the wealthy and powerful need to be removed.
What big company owns their building. Most I k ow build it then sell it to a management company then lease the space back. There is some accounting reason for this.
