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.

Make something to replace AWS
How about nationalize AWS
give me a few billion dollars to buy infrastructure and hire people who know how to do that. otherwise it's going to take a while to get off the ground if I have to start off by selling books online (and I'll still need at least half a million to start).
It's not a few billions anymore. Undersea fiber, datacenters in several countries... It all adds up.
