Work Reform
17301 readers
2499 users here now
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
Sort of a famous counter-example.
A seventy year long break from capitalist economic practices over half of Europe and most of Asia seems like it should have produced a noticeably different set of ecological outcomes.
But industrialization appears to take the same ecological toll from Beijing to Belgrade.
when will that 70 year long break happen
It already happened, in the early 90s, when Yeltsin rode a tank up to the Moscow Parliament and started shelling it.
The USSR latest from 1922 to 1991, give or take a few years depending on how you want to count it.
Dengism, in China, kicked off in earnest at about the same time (Tianamen Square was largely a Maoist reaction to capitalist land reforms).
both have no motives or actions towards anything else than the same pyramid scheme, albeit with different lingo
Both? We're taking about billions of people.
yes, both ussr and china, had and has billions of people under the global pyramid scheme
