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.

My sister in law died this morning from a bad listeria infection.
While the source hasn't been identified, I have little doubt it can be traced to the current administrations lackluster food safety policies.
Her two sons will grow up without a mother because of these fascist pricks lust for wealth and power. It won't be okay until they're all gone.
I'm so sorry for your loss
Hope things go better for you.
Wow, I'm so sorry to hear that. As a non-American, I didn't realize the food safety situation was this dire. What an unnecessary, pointless death. How many more until the people finally turn on the government? Food is about as non-partisan or bi-partisan as you can get.
Yea. American politicians definitely don't care. That's like asking them not to fund a genocide on a foreign shore.
During lockdown, Americans died of covid in the ICU while denying the existence of covid with their last hacking breath. Soon Americans will chow down on diarrhea groceries like Jonestown.
A man threatened my coworkers life over him reminding them to wear a mask the next time they came, trump and his ilk (including all republicans and the now corporate-owned media) are squarely to blame.
As an American, I'm not sure I'll ever root for America again.
Shit man, I'm sending love. Thats horrific 🫂
Thank you.
That is horrifying, try to take care of yourself and the rest of your family.
