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.

A faster way to do that: minimum wage laws that require people are paid a wage they can live off of.
The've tried the whole "let's not pass laws to increase minimum wage, people will just not take jobs that don't pay enough" for decades. Jobs still exist that pay below poverty (minimum wage).
If we agree that what they are doing is garbage and shouldn't be able to exist, why are they arguing against doing something that would prevent it from existing?
