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.

I would argue that "these working professionals" are not paid accordingly. If you're expecting more of them, pay more. Top talent tends to go where the money is.
If you're wondering where the money should come from, see: out of touch billionaires.
Depends entirely on the cost of living in that country.
If even 2 times the average income is not enough to sustain a comfortable living, then it is still not worth it to work. And that country is shit.
An entire country can underpay all their workers when the employers are greedy cunts.
