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.

The excuse is usually that whatever thing is too important for our economy, as with freight train conductors. But all that says is that the most important people also have the least labour protections and that’s fucked up.
I really don’t know why the government is so involved with Air Canada, and they can go fuck themselves here ‘cause it ain’t their business. You can still fly domestically in Canada, it just costs a lot more because suddenly demand is the same and supply is massively down.
