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.

but, what if instead of lowering the amount of food production to match what you said, we just outlaw throwing still good food out, and instead enforce a donation style regulation where leftover food that is still safe to eat must be donated or given, not wasted.
Like I used to watch the dunkin employee at the store I used to work at throw away dozens of perfectly fine doughnuts daily, or the bagels that wern't used. It's so wasteful for something that could have easily just been set outside as a "free for the taking" and then anything that wasn't taken can then be tossed the next morning.
No establishment does it because they know it would likely lower their customers, cause they would just wait for closing. but at least then its not wasting it all.
