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.

It's literally not a corpse, it's a brain-dead person / body.
You started this debate with Steve by using sensationalizing language, and I'm here to provide definitions and lay this discussion to rest:

We can all agree that what they've done is horrible, there's no need to distort language to make a point.
A corpse can not carry a pregnancy, a brain-dead body apparently can if assisted.
I'll see myself out.

"Is brain death death" and "is a brain-dead person a corpse" are two different questions. The answer to the first is yes, the second is no. You can be dead, but until your body starts decomposing it's not a corpse.
