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.

MODERATORS
If rights, citizenship and even personhood are universal then the ownership class and political class are morally obligated to share wealth evenly.
The ownership class is very comfortable in its greed. Sharing, compassion and fair play take effort, and its cheaper for them to sponsor political parties that affirm their privilege is right and proper.
Hence when there's a general call for change, the far-right movements get a lot of material support (or even materiel support) from the capitalists.
And left-wing and centrist movements are pressured (enticed or threatened)to shift to the right.
